You're reminding me of a certain quote... "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." -J.Krishnamurti

As fucked up as this world is, if you're well adjusted to it, you're broken and probably should see someone, and if you're not, you need therapy to make it through the evolving dystopian hellscape. ...so yeah, I think that's what they're saying.

I mean.. yes? Some days I feel that way, and reading your words makes sense to me. In this case I simply meant we should care for our mental health like physical and normalize it. But seeing dude compare therapy to needing a specialist for an acute problem, then reading your response... Yeah, you're def right in this case. Broken is normative.
