Some of my friends on DBSA support group are really poor. No car. No home. Just rent a room in someone else's home.
Can't travel. Or buy hardly anything.

It alone causes a more depressed life.

I get depressed when I read about all of the refugees. In Africa it's really bad. And all over the Middle East.
They're running for their lives with just what they can carry.

This upsets me every day. And all of this violence and war.

I was watching an old John Lennon dvd. He sang ,"All we are saying is give peace a chance.".

Just watching the news makes me so angry, my country is so full of corruption its hard to watch people suffering in poverty while government officials and even our president steal taxpayers funds. Recently the largest NGO for mental health ran out of funds so people would have to pay if they wanted to call the suicide hotline! Luckily an anonymous donation was received for R 1 000 000.

I saw a film from China where people had to stand in line for up to 18 hours with a sick child outside a hospital. The line went all the way down the street.
Then it's only to get an appointment. Not to be admitted.

There are ticket scalpers. They get people to make bogus appts then sell the appointments.
What a hellish life.

That's a really hard question to answer. I think when religions don't dominate, then maybe we have a chance for peace. But then there's just greed and power. I could go on and on about it, lol.
