Again, I am sorry that I put things badly and that I have hurt people.

For the record, yes, I certainly do understand that many are participating in the conversation as helpees. Most of us are both at one time or another. Myself also in the area of mental health, although not addiction. And yes, I realize that undoubtedly some people in the conversation are very poor, and that different poor people have different experiences as well.

I think we all agree that everyone should be able to access both mental health and addiction treatment resources as needed. My own experience has been one of people with addictions being refused mental health treatment, frequently and persistently. I believe that Kore's experiences are also real and true, absolutely. I continue to try to understand the factors involved in people not getting the help they need, in whatever area, in the hope that maybe things can get better. I am sorry for handling that conversation badly.
