Therapy is largely a luxury for upper middle class and affluent people.

On Medicare ( which is going to be reduced soon) you're talking about a year long waiting list. In many states childless adults can't qualify for Medicare regardless.

I personally found it to be a useless waste of money. Friends who will listen to you , because they actually care, that's what works.

Community works.

But in the West, with our individualism, you being sad is a you problem.

I don't care because I have my own issues. Go give Better Help your personal data to sell.

In collectivist cultures you being sad is OUR problem. We can work together.

Check on your friends. Give a shit about others.

Humans are not designed to be self sustaining LLC which mearly produce and consume.

What else...

Take time off. Which again is a luxury. Back when I was poor, I had a coworker who could only afford to take off the day of his daughter's birth.

Not a moment more.
