  • The text highlights a significant rise in mental health issues in the United States over the past 15 years, along with a decline in life expectancy due to causes like suicide and opioid overdoses, linking these trends to broader societal issues.
  • It explains that neoliberal capitalism, which favors minimal government intervention and free markets, has contributed to economic inequality, job insecurity, poor social services, and social disempowerment, all of which can negatively impact mental health.
  • The author suggests that these economic and social policies may be a driving force behind increasing mental illness rates and encourages mental health professionals to advocate for systemic changes to improve societal well-being.]

"Expanding neoliberalism globally through coercive and violent tactics has caused suffering in other countries. The mental distress that has been caused by these policies gives us a unique opportunity as mental health providers to advocate for change." https://t.co/fArOHMhX1A

“The diagnosis of a mental illness is often contingent upon negatively affecting a person’s performance...indicating that being unsuccessful within the neoliberal order is an individual illness...rather than a problem with the social order itself” Yikes. https://t.co/ib4FVa6upy https://t.co/wGrg8gTZkK
