You know one of the other things that I’m very much an advocate about is how our overall health and well-being impacts our mental health. So there are a. Lot of medical conditions or health related conditions or lifestyle factors that are going to influence someone presenting with a quote UN quote. Psychiatric condition or psychiatric symptoms. I mean things like that. You can range from Lyme disease to thyroid issues, to nutritional deficiencies to sleep related problems and in this. Assembly line of a healthcare system that is now 2022. Is you go in you report your symptoms. You get a drug, and so they’re very much integrated together. And even if you talk to primary care physicians who have enormous amount of challenges in today’s healthcare system. A lot of. Like tests that I think would be like really critical full blood panels and a number of other things often get denied by the insurance companies, so they cannot do full work UPS on people in order to really determine some of the sources. Of their them feeling unwell. So people who have low energy and have sleep problems and have other symptoms of low mood are going to be quickly labeled psychiatrically and then provided a drug when the actual problems that they’re really suffering with are more complex. And there are other medical and lifestyle problems that need to be addressed first.
