Before the Second Psych Hospital Visit

I'm writing this from Rocco's, a sports bar in my dear sweet neighborhood of Culver City. I'm watching the Packers play their first regular season game and listening to "Praying" by Kesha so as to block out the bar noise. This is the nature of my precious writing process, mmkay? Preceding my second psych hospitalization, sh*t got scary. I would say, mostly for my family because they knew I wasn't getting sleep and I called my mom nightly so she could talk me down from my panic attacks, but there was not much else they could do from thousands of miles away.

My Recent Psychiatric Hospital Visits, And Why I Refuse To Ever, Ever, Ever, Ever Go Back (Part 1).

Relatable.
This is a great listen if you're interested in the debate of mass shootings and mental healthcare. "We do have medications for things like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. We don't have medications for things like resentment, hatred, anger....Most mass shooters do not have the characteristics of diagnosed mental illness. A lot of them are just really angry, resentful, bitter young men who have similar histories of social isolation... they have an entitlement towards social standings, attention from women, and feel like they're not getting the attention or popularity they deserve."
President Trump has focused on mental health, rather than weapons, after the mass shooting in Florida. But mental illness is rarely the cause of gun violence.
