The enormous numbers of people killing themselves are not necessarily buying guns or hating minorities. And therapy can only respond to pre-exisitng problems. If there are society-wide problems creating terrible living conditions, we need a society-wide prevention scheme.
Or you can spew vile hatred and pretend it’s because you’re against hatred.
You don’t understand. You don’t need to have a mental health condition to go to therapy. Healthy minded people benefit from therapy as well to put their emotions and thoughts into perspective.
No, but it’s causing suicide attempts turn into suicides. If you try to OD or whatever, your chances of death are much lower than if you try to see what the barrel of your gun tastes like.
But I am NOT interested in simply removing a person’s capacity to kill themselves and then leaving their desire to kill themselves intact…and then ignoring the conditions that are making hordes of people depressed enough to kill themselves.
I’m also 100% interested in the people who are depressed but who aren’t suicidal. I want people to live their best lives. This conversation should be about them, about what’s causing this about whether we can help. I want to know what’s wrong. I want them to stop wanting to kill themselves.
Where are you getting this 2a stuff from? How is it even related? Nobody said that guns will save the USA from suicides and overdoses. You’re talking nonsense.
And who is “angry for no reason?” You’re the one angry at men who are killing themselves. This is super weird and cruel.
Masculinity above logic is NOT the move
Be "masculine, be “feminine,” nobody gives a fuck.
Go to a therapist if you’re struggling with your mental health.
Stop bringing your toxic-masculinity as an excuse to buy guns and hate minorities.

You couldn’t possibly be more wrong about this one
You’re suggesting that the cause of a wave of suicides is only a lack of therapy? There’s nothing else behind it?
Well, I mean therapy would certainly help.
Therapy can possibly help heal. I’m more interested in reducing the conditions which make therapy necessary.

Increase gun ownership is likely a factor, among many other factors.
Increased gun ownership isn’t causing a mental health crisis.
No, but it’s causing suicide attempts turn into suicides. If you try to OD or whatever, your chances of death are much lower than if you try to see what the barrel of your gun tastes like.
I’m all for banning guns.

Bam! Nailed it.
So angry for no reason. Maybe implement changes that will fix the problem?.. There is another 100k a year just conking out to fent.
There are so many issues for randoms to be defending 2a like it will somehow save the USA from this cesspool

If your “prevention scheme” is not exclusively limiting gun sales, you’ve definitely been drinking the 2a koolaid
why “exclusively” ?
How will it prevent people from wanting to kill themselves?
