    Yeah, that's a whole line of discussion that has some merit to it. I think the answer is genuinely somewhere close to a synthesis. Neurodiversity should be celebrated and as a part of that folks deserve treatment to help improve their quality of life without fear of stigma.

    Even in an ideal world free of capitalism, those with mental health disorders will often still struggle to find balance and stability. I know I'm not in a good place if/when I ever decompensate. It's a terrible space to find yourself and reminds me of how I've heard diabetic lows described.

    Treatment should never be forced and state mandated institutionalization has been a blight on the history of mental health as a discipline. There will always be some people that don't want any kind of treatment and that's their choice. I think a lot of the fear and hesitancy around healthcare will decrease though once it is provided universally.
