"US President" goes bananas on Frontier flight

Mental illness seems to be running rampant these days. We have seen a lot more of it at my work in recent years.

I think there are many more effective treatments now that allow people who would have been very disabled in the past to lead normal lives. Unfortunately, some people feel better, think they are cured and stop treatment with unfortunate predictable results.

And many, many people never get the care they need in the first place.
 
Plus a lot of people who need mental health treatment don’t get it because a prevalent attitude in society is to let them be themselves, or to avoid medication, or not confine them to a facility, and some more weak sauce. We can’t return to the medieval sanitariums that led to the current situation, but we can certainly push the pendulum back to the middle or slightly past.

And more than that, if more people would just suck it up when they don’t get what they want, be honest with themselves about their ego vs ability, and stop coddling their family and friends with unjustified reward for non-performance.
