title. i took a few years off of all social media, including lemmygrad, but i could have sworn there was such a community back when i frequented lemmygrad before the break. i found one major post on the topic from 3 years ago and several comments that lead to errors, which i assume is because the posts they were under were deleted or removed. what exactly is the history there? if the community was banned or removed what was the reasoning?
furthermore, just out of curiosity, what are people’s opinions on psychiatry, psychology, and the anti-psychiatry movement? i’ve been doing a lot of thinking and some research on all three as it relates to the development of capitalism and socialism, as well as my own personal experience. to me it seems to be another case in which a marxist framework is necessary to synthesize psychiatry/psychology and anti-psychiatry to come to a fundamentally closer approximation to the truth. topics such as where the line should be drawn between behavioral/biological conditions and the usage/role of psychiatric medication seem to be particularly hot button issues.
it’s really hard for me to experientially know where you’re coming from, and so i don’t exactly know what to say other than even if you’ve given up hope, i will still be hoping for you and thinking of you. i’ve definitely dealt with horrible medical care before, whether mental or physical, and especially when i was younger it all served to give me the impression that my health wasn’t valuable to society and, by extension, that my own life wasn’t valuable to society. but, even though i don’t know you i think you’re valuable and worth hoping for, even if the present and future look bleak.
