John Swinton 12 Dec 1829-15 Dec 1901)

There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.

There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.

The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press?

We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.

Govt to establish mental health institution - Anwar

Bernama

Published: Sep 11, 2023

my comment:

What an individual fails to do for himself in retaining and preserving his mental health, can never be achieved and attained by a government institution.

Mental health, personal immunity, physical alertness and strength are matters within our own power to enjoy.if we pay the price of discipline and daily exercise to maintenance such ideal state all the days of our lives.

What the government can do for her people is to provide education and insight on the art and science of keep our mental health.

As in bodily health mental health works the same way.

Thomas Edison (11 Feb 1847-18 Oct 1931) said:-

The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients with the care of the human frame, in diet in the cause of prevention of disease

Another holistic doctor said the same thing:-

. If we eat wrongly, no doctor can cure us, if we eat rightly, no doctor is needed. ( Victor G Racine)

Mental health as a science and art is both simple and complicated. Because of the complexities of human constitutions within us.

Human being is not just skin,bones and blood. The unseen and invisible portion of human being is a mysterious force of nature which even existing science can't explain nor understand.It is never taught in school or universities. Because even the most intelligent or educated do not know nor aware of its existence.

In its totality all human being has a body, possesses a

soul and is endowed with a spirit.

The physical body has skin, bones, organs keep alive and active by a circulation system. which has blood circulating a distance of 100,000 km when all the arteries,veins and capillaries are joined end to end.

The soul has three components in will, mind and emotions.

The spirit has three parts as well, in conscience, intuition and spirit( the organ which is able to contact God and communicate with Eternity)

Mental sickness or mind disorder manifested itself as an ailment when the individual so infected cannot function as a person to think rationally and reasonably in conducting the daily affair of life.

Depression, hopelessness antisocial behaviour, suicidal tendency and other negative traits of emotion form part of mental sickness.

The causes of mental disorder can arise from physical factor such as magnesium deficiency. besides other related factors such as side effects of medication from drugs.Beta-blockers are generally prescribed in the treatment of high blood pressure can trigger depression.

corticosteroids used to treat inflammatory conditions, such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and Sjögren's syndrome can also cause depression.

Benzodiazepines used to treat anxiety and insomnia to cause the muscles to relax. In certain circumstances, these drugs may lead to depression symptoms.

Parkinson drug, anticonvulsant,drug also can cause depression.

Depression can easily happen when one's feelings emotion,mood and inner peace is disturbed and allow to fester without a cure.

Long term insomnia also contributes to depression.

Mental health centres around the question of our existence on earth.Man having a spirit means our earthly life on earth is intimately links to our life beyond.

questions such as where do we come from?

Is there a Creator God who make heaven and earth?

Is there life after death? Why is there so much sufferings of all kind on this earth? Is there a divine supreme Being who can help man in difficult moment of need? Where is the human destiny heading ?

All the negative depressing news of earthquakes, wars and destruction of nature,human beings and lacks of all kinds can lead to depression, if no answer or solution is forth coming to those who ask such questions.

Depression also has much to do with a person's ability to establish his or her identity. Engaging in meaningful work, relationship with others and enjoying certain standard of peace, freedom of mind and spirit. To stay above depression, a person also must possess self worth and esteem. Attain mental resilient to solve life's obstacles and challenges. In enjoyment of a circle of trusted friends who can offer help and fellowship, companionship in daily living.

Mental health institution set up by government can never provide solutions and answers to the deep questions of life. The intention may be good, but in reality, all of us are better off, taking proactive, preventive measures to rise above this social economic misery called depression.
