Did you really expect such social animals as humans to take more than a year of total lockdown well? I guess mental health does not exist in your Victorian mindset MOD NOTE: this dude's been banned.

I guess mental health does not exist in your Victorian mindset Um excuse me I have spent years of my life crying myself to sleep and self harming because I was socially ostracized and had no friends and not once did I hurt anyone but myself, please f*ck off even now I have felt deeply sad during the pandemic because of my lack of social connections and friendships, the fact that I don’t even have anyone to talk to and yet I have not physically harmed anything, not even when the cat meows all god damn night long and I can’t sleep because of it this is such a disgusting comment, yes people are under stress and suffering but that is still no excuse. The lack of material support, sick days, etc from the government is the real problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chic 20,830 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 A few questions: 1. Is this one hospital saying the numbers doubled for themselves? 2. If this is a study of multiple hospitals, how far is the range of hospitals extending? Are they only researching within a 10 mile radius or a 200 mile radius? 3. How many hospitals were studied overall? From what I'm reading it looks like just one hospital talking about its own numbers, and that isn't really informative of the overall study. If this is simply one hospital, the number of explanations for these findings could be drastically different than if many hospitals were researched. It's hard to draw many definitive conclusions from the information provided Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks hunny but I’m a poor and I have no money for therapy, and honestly I have exhausted myself countless times talking and explaining “what’s wrong” with me and it has never helped. I’m in an okay place mentally now and part of that has to do with just accepting that living a happy, normal life is just not meant for me, I am just not the kind of person that is meant to enjoy this world and i’ve made peace with that.

You ever want to talk, my pm's are open. I had a few meetings with a counselor last month and it didn't do much for me either We can be sad bros OT: the mental impact of covid is insane. Something like half of all young adults have fallen into depression. Suicide rates are up and people are having trouble getting resources they need because literally everything medical is being dedicated to covid. I can't wait for this sh*t to end already Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to draw many definitive conclusions from the information provided Yeah not clear actually. The article says "hospitals" in plural form have seen an increase in head traumas but then when it gives a more specic figure of being more than double its a specific Toronto hospital So seems to me like theres been a general across the board increase in hospitals as a whole but then the more specific figure of it being double is to this specific hospital Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
