The state of the mental health industry

To be more specific, one person's take on the way mental health professionals reach for the pill-box.

It's on YouTube, I'm not going to link directly to it, but if you search 'Laura Delano' and 'Tucker Carlson', you'll find an interview I listened to with great interest, while doing some tasks, the other day. It's a long interview, over two hours, but chronicles Laura's journey from being habitually medicated, to not being medicated. She was Dx'd Bipolar, as well as some other things, I think. It seems as if the whole thing started with a depersonalisation/derealisation/dissociation kind of episode, you know, the kind of thing where you're staring in a mirror and suddenly nothing is real and it ain't you looking back at you? That kind of thing.

On a lot of meds from childhood, sectioned twice, if I'm not mistaken. Well, not 'sectioned', but threatened that 'you do it voluntarily, or you'll be volunteered'. That kind of thing. It was a good interview.
