I don't know exactly what you're going through of course, and we may live with different mental health systems, but when it comes to the very basics of mental health then yes I too am quite sick of it. I am personally at a spot where I'm rethinking my own assumptions about what it means to be mentally healthy and how to maintain emotional and mental "hygiene" (such a disgustingly sterile word). Every situation, with the most thoughtful and well-trained therapists, just leads, seemingly blindly, down the road to automatic next steps (psychiatrist, medication, hospitalizations). I am desperate because what I'm asking for is so basic that to not get it feels like an affront to my humanity. Yet that desperation makes them think I'm an easy target; like I'm trying to buy a car and they want to upsell me.
