Humans need a certain amount of struggle and hard work to be mentally healthy. Success without effort doesn't satisfy the psyche. So many in America have it too easy. No struggle, no need to solve problems themselves, no need to overcome obstacles. It makes us unable to handle life's little problems. Real manual labor, overcoming a significant difficulty with your own wits and hard work do wonders for mental health.

I used to work in nursing homes. It was obvious that once a person's needs are completely met and they have no more struggles, life gets more difficult, not less.

Dang, man, that is not a logical conclusion either.

Yes, that might be true. But, what I believe is especially true is that a lot of people around the world that could use the service by our standards can't or wouldn't pay for it. Therefore, fewer shrinks.

Sure, you could be right, but, there is way too little information presented to make that kind of sweeping conclusion.

Growing up my father told me that you make your life happy, not the other way around. While I think there are people that genuinely need help getting through stuff, I think he was onto something.

If I have told him once I have told that boy 100 times only a fool would steal traps from Mark June. He is better with them than the rest of us. A committed thief would wait and just take the spotted cats out for him, I hear he catches them by the 4-wheeler load.

When daughter was in 1st grade the school wanted us to get meds for her attention issues. We had her moved away from the chatty girls she sat next to and the problem was solved.
Our schools and parents don't want to deal with children, they want to deal with mini-adults.

So many have so much that the only problems they have are worrying about minor items. Even the poor people in America are fat.


There are no true struggles in life for alot of us. I have worked with young people that have to look at the phone every 5-10 minutes just to see if they got a message or see what the latest post is.
I told one young man why not just leave his phone in his car? He could of got twice as much work done if he left the phone in his car. You should of seen his face, it was like I asked him to cut off his right arm.
I'm glad he wasn't my employee.

I believe they are making progress in the treatment of TDS, but many are too far gone.
