Americans are ignoring the real roots of our mental health crisis while chasing woke Band-Aids. Dr. Drew Pinsky, a respected physician, dropped truth bombs about depression and anxiety’s true causes on NEWSMAX’s “America Right Now.” His commonsense solutions expose how far we’ve strayed from what actually works.
Leftist policies let addicts rot in streets instead of getting real medical care. Dr. Drew blasted our insane approach to mental health – social workers can’t replace doctors, yet we’ve prioritized feelings over facts. “We know how to treat this,” he said. “We need beds, psychiatrists, and to stop pretending therapy solves everything.”
Drug abuse and booze are exploding thanks to weak leadership. Depression meds get handed out like candy while we ignore booze and fentanyl destroying brains. Dr. Drew warned about self-medication traps – especially for men left adrift by a culture that mocks masculinity. Real healing starts by dumbing the poison, not taxpayers funding needle exchanges.
You are what you eat – and America’s eating garbage. Processed food, lazy screen addiction, and gym-phobia fuel the mental health fire. Dr. Drew stressed simple fixes: cook meat and veggies, walk daily, sleep like your ancestors did. But try telling that to avocado toast liberals pushing veganism and 3am TikTok scrolling.
The war on family values created this mess. Dr. Drew called strong families the foundation of mental health – yet Democrats keep attacking marriage and parental rights. Kids need dinner tables, not gender clinics. Communities thrive when dads work and moms nurture, not when government replaces the home.
Washington wastes billions on failed programs while real solutions gather dust. Dr. Drew praised medical-assisted treatment, but bureaucrats fund “harm reduction” instead of recovery. Cities let tent cities spread disease while cutting hospital beds. Real compassion means tough love, not enabling destruction.
Conservatives have the answer: faith, service, and personal responsibility. Dr. Drew urged finding purpose through church, helping neighbors, and studying history. Patriots built this nation with calluses and Bibles – not antidepressants and safe spaces. Success comes from grit, not government handouts.
America’s comeback starts by rejecting woke insanity and returning to what works. Dr. Drew’s roadmap – family meals, hard work, clean living – made this country great. It’s time to ditch the victimhood, toss the scripts, and rebuild our souls the old-fashioned way. Freedom isn’t free – and neither is mental health.
