    I’m struggling to understand your point. You’re 1) accusing me of perpetuating “the medical model,” and 2) disagreeing with me that mindfulness meditation (literally a free thing you can do alone in your room) can help people take more control of their internal state? The implication here is you think more people should just be on antidepressant meds for the rest of their lives, I guess?

    If your takeaway from everything I’ve said about mindfulness meditation helping people take some control of their thoughts and feelings is that I’m telling people to “just be less sad,” you just aren’t listening.

      Interesting accusation, considering you just barfed up a bunch of ableist nonsense you heard from someone with a profit motive

        There, I deleted the sentence where I said you’re regurgitating worn out jokes. Care to respond to any of the actual thoughts I laid out? Or are you still too concerned I’ve been tainted by Big Buddhism
