Dr. Drew Pinsky is sounding the alarm about America’s mental health crisis – and he’s pointing fingers at the woke mob silencing the truth. On Newsmax’s “America Right Now,” the celebrity doctor ripped apart the left’s dangerous denial of what’s really causing depression and anxiety. While liberals push pills and therapy, Pinsky exposed the root causes they don’t want you to hear about.
Bad diets and lazy lifestyles are destroying minds across America. Pinsky called out the processed food industry and screen-addicted culture making people sick. “We’re feeding our kids poison and wondering why they can’t focus,” he blasted. Common sense solutions like home-cooked meals and outdoor playtime have been replaced by government-funded snack programs and video game babysitters.
Drug abuse is skyrocketing while weak-on-crime policies let dealers roam free. Pinsky warned that marijuana and fentanyl are frying young brains, but Democrat cities keep legalizing drugs. “They care more about addicts’ ‘rights’ than saving lives,” he said. Parents are losing kids to overdoses while blue-state leaders hand out clean needles instead of jail time.
Real medicine – not feelings-based therapy – could save millions. Pinsky slammed the mental health industry for pushing “talk therapy” over medical tests. “Depression isn’t always in your head – it could be your thyroid or vitamin deficiency,” he explained. But greedy insurance companies would rather pay for endless counseling sessions than real doctor visits.
The collapse of family values is fueling the crisis. Pinsky highlighted how fatherless homes and broken marriages leave people unstable. “Kids need structure, not participation trophies,” he argued. Schools pushing radical gender ideology instead of basic life skills are creating confused, anxious teenagers trapped in mental fog.
Government failure has turned cities into open-air mental wards. Pinsky blasted blue-state leaders for emptying psychiatric hospitals in the 70s. “Now we’ve got homeless addicts dying in the streets instead of getting real help,” he said. Soft-on-crime DAs and “defund the police” madness have made public spaces dangerous war zones.
There’s hope – if we return to time-tested American values. Pinsky urged viewers to take charge of their health through home cooking, gym memberships, and church communities. “Stop waiting for government fixes – real healing starts at your dinner table,” he declared. Strong families, disciplined lifestyles, and medical reality – not rainbow flags and safe spaces – will rebuild the nation’s mental health.
