Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
I know someone who works in emergency services who said that people in those professions are actually afraid of seeking any type of mental health support because if their employers were to find out, they could be put on administrative duties, unpaid leave, or outright fired for being mentally unfit. The problem is systemic.
That's why it has to be required for everyone - if everyone gets therapy, then the ones who actually need it can't be singled out.
