Depression is real

[@JoshA1306]

I'm dealing with everything you just mentioned! Found my wife in bed with another man, recently divorced, x wife got remarried 9 months after our divorce, lost a 80,000 a year job, got a DWI, and now homeless! Appreciate the encouragement but sometimes things are a little to much to handle! I was sober and really close to God at the time all of this unfolded! Everyone has a limit!!

Heyyyy…just checking in on ya. I’m an Air Force vet, working each day on my PTSD Anxiety & Depression. My ex was also in the Air Force and was emotionally and physically abusive to me. Our split was the best thing for me in my life. As Kash stated, you’re not alone and I hope you are doing well. 🩵🕊️🙏🏾

Hay, I'm from IL also. I know whats it's like to go though the struggle with suicide. I think there definitely is a subconscious expectation in society to expect me to just suck it up and be emotionally stronger than women. A while back I was sent to a hospital for trying to commit suicide. I stole a gun from a friend and I meant to kill myself with it. I held it to my head many times but eventually I was just to week to pull the trigger. I definitely have a lot of respect for you as a soldier and I also respect how much research you put into this. I've been thinking about going into the military also. I have a lot of respect for you sir. Never leave a fallen comrade. Never accept defeat. Never quit.

So how will cutting the budget on health care help the people who are depressed?

[@robert_douglas]

Healthcare is a very """nuanced""" issue since ACA got passed. Making Market-based initiatives public options is something that makes everybody suffer equally, to the benefit of no-one; Canada recently underwent this in Chaoulli v. Quebec when the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that prohibiting access to private healthcare was unconstitutional in Canada.

Tax Credits for healthcare have been debated a lot, but bringing back health-based "fraternal societies" is also an option worth exploring. Healthcare deserves a chances to prove, in part or in full, it's value in a competitive, free market if there is any chance it could save lives.
