Most insurance plans don’t cover mental health beyond trivial interactions for a trivial period of time. Most metal healh professionals don’t accept insurance because they can’t afford to. After a decade between school and “volunteering”, insurance companies offer a wage that could easily be made with far less stress, responsibility, and accountability. Earnings can be “clawed back” by an insurane company at any time.

Most insurance companies don’t provide out of network benefits, because they can make more profit by exploiting customers and labor. Often pitting them against each other to avoid any responsibility.

MHPAEA is a fucking joke. For profit healthcare should be illegal.

If this has been going on since your teens, it sounds like bipolar disorder. With the help of psychiatric prescriber, trying a course of lithium can be diagnostic; differentiating Bipolar and ADHD. Get a second opinion. Mixed, rapid cycle and atypical symptoms are hard for clinicians without lots of practical experience to discern from comorid conditions or differential diagnosis like ADAD.

Bipolar disorder can profoundly be affected by menstrual cycle, and/or hormonal birth control.

Yeah. That’s how sycophantic the Republicans are.

I wonder what Trump will do if Elon dies and he has to take over.

Babies shit and piss themselves constantly.

Exhale a collective sigh of relief, and say “Finally a US President who gets us.”

… And find out.

Because it doesn’t spark outrage. Outrage is the swiss army knife of the new fascists. It’s distracting us from all the horrific shit they are doing, we’re overwhelmed with rapid insane information so we can’t focus on what they just did, and it allows them to subtilty shift “normal” their direction; thus all opposition must be “radical”.

Corps don’t give a fuck about an antitrust law suit. In the US, the party that pays the most to jerk off CEOs just got put in charge. Even if it was the other party, who only pays slightly less, the most extreme fines are a slap on the wrist. Hell, come Jam 20th it’ll probably a tax write off.

Until the EU levies fines that would kneecap these companies out of business, there is no incentive to change the behavior.

It’s tripping me up you had to point out you’re not a boomer instead of just saying you’re from Gen X.

All this 2FA, SSH, token / key stuff is garbage. Rectal vascular mapping is the only legitimate security option.

I don’t like candy bars or milkshakes. If I’m going to a Starbucks its at 3am in an airport, it’s the ONLY option, thus I’m willing to tolerate burnt to fuck drip coffee.
