Well said, it's all just lies and delusions that the hive mind believes in and of course, the people are like out of sight, out of mind. So nothing will change unless the prevailing attitude and values in society change.
This is precisely why I stopped seeing psychologists about five years ago. Before they even attempt to address your problems, they ask you a series of scripted questions (like "Have you ever thought about harming yourself or others?") that you have to answer dishonestly if you don't want to have the authorities escort you to an even WORSE place than you are now. So yeah, not the greatest way to establish trust!
Even as a solutions-oriented person, I realize that some problems are unfixable for some people; all others can do in such cases is provide understanding and emotional support. Alas, even that is hard to come by in our heartless dog-eat-dog environment where the "Fuck you, I've got mine" mentality reigns supreme!
Lol my therapist (a few years ago) asked me these scripted bullshit incriminating questions when I saw her. Fucking hell, as a person who has a hard time telling a lie, I had to bite the bullet (metaphorically speaking) and do so just so I don't fuck up things even more.
I too am also a solutions-oriented person and I agree with you that some problems are unfixable or have no (feasible) solution to them. Death is relief from those problems and any open-minded, rational person would accept that.
It's as if suicide could never possibly be a rational decision because once again, life is viewed as inherently good no matter what.
That's pro-life mentality must be done away with, but sadly the majority of people still view life as inherently good. It's quite abhorrent how they refuse to view that life is a neutral thing, which can be good/bad depending on the circumstances.
Nope. It's all "are you suicidal? Then screw the why and let's keep you in a glass jar without things like shoelaces so you can't hurt yourself." First off, props to anyone who can hang themselves with shoelaces. Second, it's totally counterproductive to ask someone if they're suicidal because they know the repercussions are so scary that they're forced to lie. I think people mistakenly believe they're going to get some low key help on their own terms if they come clean about it, but no. It's a bit like if you're arrested and the cops want to talk to you. You probably want to get things off your chest under the erroneous belief that you can clear things up and go home at the end of the day, but all you did was screw yourself more. In that sense we are treated like criminals. Such a crappy, broken system.
Indeed, suicidal people gets treated as bad as criminals even though they have broken no laws (legally speaking for the most part), sometimes even worse than suspected criminals. At least suspected criminals have some civil rights and what not, being allowed to post bail, remain silent, lawyer up, and what not.
