Sadly we will never end the stigma.

There’s no stigmata these days. When one of us hurts, we all hurt. You gotta be a better friend to yourself.

A nice sentiment. But there is a stigma. Ask any person who has suffered.

Relax it’s an expression

BTW, great job by JD. He set up a very long and detailed 3 part interview with Dave Popkin on the Trove.

Not Sure why a calm conversation in which you may or may not be on the opposite side warrants a “relax” from you. I spent my career in healthcare. I offered my view of what I’ve seen many folks go through. The lack of parity between benefit levels for physical and mental illness is a telling sign of the stigma. Sorry if my calm demeanor has you unnerved. Peace out
