    That quote aside, many, many years ago a psychiatrist introduced me to cognitive behavioral therapy and it absolutely changed my life and I use it every day of my life decades later. I would recommend it for liberals, conservatives, old, young, male, female, whether you're on 5 antidepressants and antianxiety meds or zero. That and learning about common cognitive distortions and how to manage them on a day-to-day basis. Folks should use it in just their everyday life to deal with things, even if there is no mental health problem. But when it comes to mental health issues, whether depression or many others, we have decades of research showing how effective it can be in treating it.

    True. It’s a tool in the toolbox. Many people need medication to supplement it, however.

    How does this even get introduced? Seems like a rather blatant attack on the First Amendment.
    I know Trumpists aren’t terribly smart and that they despise any education unrelated to plumbing or construction, but this seems like something most of us learned in middle school.

    It gets introduced by virtue signaling performative grifters looking for 15 minutes on Fox News or NewsMax. Folks who look to MTG as a guiding star of how an elected official behaves.

    Somewhere earlier, on some thread, I suggested my 6 year old grandson was evil. Guess what?? He's not. He's a super intelligent boy with bad parenting for an adhd condition. The FAMILY is engaging in therapy. First CDI, (Child Directed Interaction,) then PDI (Parent Directed Interaction). Then a bunch more. It's ongoing but the experts think my grandson will catch up to emotions vs brain. He is taking a low dose something (Not the stimulant kind) but the therapy is more parent oriented. INCREDIBLE difference in this child. AND his parents. Obviously this isn't the thread you wanted this to land on, but therapy is real, And can change lives.

    Who are “my people?” University board members I don’t know? I’m not a Republican.

    The thing about DeSantis is that he was a jerk, and an a-hole and the Fla. GOP did well in the mid-terms so they figured "more and bigger" is what people want.
