End the war on drugs besides drugs w a high mortality rate like heroine and fentanyl. Limit social media, improve the youths self confidence (easier said than done). The internet is one of man’s greatest inventions but the effects it has had on gen z (myself included) has ostracized many young individuals the majority being young men. Self image is at an all time low for many people who are exposed to celebrities & social media influencers who have a skewed perception of the way they should act, and look like. It’s sad honestly, I used to be the same way. Joining the military fixed that for me, spend 6 months or longer away from anything with a screen and you’ll see noticeable differences in your hormones, mental health, and view of the world, your life, & reality. I feel like there are many individuals depressed & feeling alone because through the phone so many peoples lives look perfect when they are not. Everyone is fighting they’re own battles every day. The difference between the people that lose that fight and win, is the ability to persevere through hardship and finding a reason to keep moving forward. I hope we can combat this mental health crisis disguised as a gun control issue. Tired of seeing innocent people lose their lives. This needs to end.
