Sharing – A third of parents are embarrassed to seek mental health support for their children
We are going nowhere with this. We are still looking at kids with mental health struggles as a product of bad parents, and discouraging parents from getting their kids the help they need at a young age. Then, without treatment, they just grow up into adults with worsening symptoms who need ever more help.

Have you read any of the books on this list? What book would you add that did actually change your life?
Sharing – Adult Loneliness Is Linked to Childhood Trauma
I’ve felt this and I’ve talked about it many times before. Children forced to deal with a lot of trauma do that instead of learning about our place in the world, and in respect to other people. So would this be any surprise?
