  1. Good morning to everyone and God Bless, I truly loved your writings on Mental Health, Yes Covid caused many twists in all health including PTSD. Looking back way back in History Humanity has had many incredibly mean and nasty people gain enormous power and wealth and the worst part is they reproduced a lot. I agree with all that you wrote although it comes down to Genetics , enviroment , Psyc. issues such as Power, Greed, and Control which I believe are a form of mental illness. I say this because I have seen first hand how the above mentioned works. This is how it works , we will give you a good job and you will pretty much be able to do what ever you want if you refuse yours and your families life will suffer. What they don’t tell you is that the level in life they put you in your job will never change unless you make them richer and as far as doing what ever you want it comes down to what ever they say you can do Ha.
