I think you'd be better off pushing for a mental health awareness month...
Interesting thought, there were no mental health issues in rural areas, when you need to get up early and do some work in the field to feed your family. Mental issues are product of this newer way of life. Not sure why, but guessing we are getting farther from the nature we were evolved and our mind can't keep up. Not talking about clinical mental issues caused by genetics, simple depression, anxiety and those new/modern illness.
Do you know how common suicide is among farmers??
maybe because govs are trying to destroy them? I think that is another issue
