    Sanity and behavior are judged by a neurotypical standard. Money and success are a big factor in treatment. The wealthy tend to be called "eccentric " while those without success or money are dehumanized and used as income for the facility holding them.

    There's a lot of people who acquire a degree immediately act as if they've forgotten everything they've learned.

    I like studying mental health history when it comes to that stuff because a lot of it is pretty horrific. It’s actually quite horror movie.
    Depends on which time period and how barbaric it was back then and it wasn’t even that long ago we were still shocking people in the head with electricity in a way that legitimately was Ock Ing people if they did something wrong in their eyes of perception so the medical field hasn’t really evolved very fast, but it only recently started to stop some of its barbaric practices wasn’t very long ago.
    And I can quite literally say this for a fact, and I have no problem saying it because I’m better in the aspects I needed to get better but not because of the mental health industry I took more spiritual path to healing.
    But mental health facilities here in Central America are joke. The one I went to, when I was suffering from extreme depression and trying to end my life took me in the back of the place. It was sketchy is gonna be nobody was there was not greeted got dropped off in the back of the place like some shady drop off on top of that the place had people constantly screaming , and hitting the walls and me and another guy were sitting there wondering if someone was going to stop the person was breaking through the wall and this is not a joke. This is not an exaggeration. This is not to scare you not all mental health facilities are like this just the one I went to was absolutely a nightmare, if you know you have a family member and you’re gonna help them when it comes to extreme situations where they need immediate mental health assistance. Make sure you do your research about what place you send them to you might do more damage if you send them to the wrong place
    Me, I made it out of there. And if I had to, I would rather choose going to prison then going into that place.
    I know my story is not exactly a nice story but in all honesty I’m trying to say something here. The mental health system is very flawed, but there is some places that are actually good. Do your reviews understand what you’re getting yourself into when you send a family member or you send a welfare check as a friend concerned about a loved one make sure you understand the rules the regulations the places the ratings of the places before you do these actions because it’s detrimental to the person who needs treatment. a lot of places are horrible. A lot of places are good, but not every places the same and you might just have all bad around you, be careful remember research and the real work at the real psychology behind. Everything is true most of it. They need some refining but I understand things are slowly getting better.
    I can say this openly as a way to help people understand I have almost died several times by my own hands, but I tell you this now it’s not worth it. Keep living. Trust me things get better. I have amazing kids now they keep me on my toes every single day, and my children are the best thing in this world. They give me so much meaning and so much life , I could never think about killing myself ever again. I got 2 Boys. They Dr. me nuts and up the wall, but they’re the reason why every day is a blessing my two boys.

      What I've read and studied and the reviews all align similarly in many extents to what you described.
      I which urban explorers. And many times they go to abandoned asylums. They may not be part of the modern day system and run down but seeing the barbaric equipment still left in them is creepy as hell and makes me thankful i was born in this day and age. I don't believe id be around if i was born back then, the system would taken me out.
      Appreciate the input and as always thank you for sharing your experiences and message it's always valuable to the channel! 👍

    Maybe helpful to get the attention of other successful autistic creators to help achieve your goal. Paul Micallef, Orion Kelly ....

      After several years on the platform I've sent more than 100 emails between so many different professionals and also other channels.
      Large number of all communication attempts went completely ignored. Few returned back a response saying they are not taking new collabs or didnt show interest in a talk.
      And others down right considered me a threat in that when i talked to them about licensing their work or asking for permission to use they accused me of being the reason people steal content and said they would report me even when i clarified and told them that i never used anything of theirs i was simply asking permission but after their reply i don't plan on talking to them again.
      It's why i went my own way and carved out my own path. I knew it would be an uphill battle and a fight to do it alone but hey when you're suppressed and ignored sometimes you have to be louder then the rest to finally get attention.
      The saying goes "the squeaky wheel gets the grease". The volume of my message is increasing and becoming louder so hopefully one day when the community out their realizes I'm not going anywhere and ive built a true community from the ground up just maybe they will stop seeing me as a threat and decide to work with me. We shall see.
