Simply put, our whole medical and health culture is focused on "getting and keeping the money". It's a money business, not a healing business, and it's a risky move to try to change it.
That's why I come here, use subliminals, learn more freedom, and change myself--the only person I have power over. They're playing their game; I'll play mine. We do have a lot more power than they tell us. Because they've been slowly and steadily brainwashing us from childhood on. Waking up from that is, in no small way, miraculous.
Thanks for posting this.
I think that they are trying to do what they can with the knowledge they have, but that knowledge isn't enough to help people with mental health problems. Mental health can't be standardised and understood in scientific terms, but stems from an understanding one can only achieve by dealing with their own problems. I saw an interesting talk with Dr. Gabor maté who mentioned that the medical profession is in large represented by people running away from their own problems to a profession where they will have power, be needed by others, and can focus on their career - all of things that a person who don't want to deal with their own problems and want to substitute it with other things will thrive. So that could be a reason why the medical profession is reluctant to looking at new angles on mental health, because of their own personal inability and resistance to relate to it.
