    It’s okay to not be okay, no healthy person is happy all the time. Emotions have meaning and are human.

    What’s more, if you are living in a place where your human rights are under attack it is those that aren’t profoundly disturbed by that who are abnormal and unhealthy.

    I feel bad for whoever made this comic. Clearly they haven’t been having a good time with therapy. I’ve been going for a few months now and I’ve gained a lot of insight into myself. Each to their own, though.

      Yeah, I’m not fond of the anti-therapy/psychiatry bent a lot of leftists take. Therapy and psychiatry can be enormously helpful and would be necessary in any world. Capitalism contributes to mental health problems, but I personally would still be profoundly mentally ill even in a socialist utopia.
