Mental health is a serious issue. This person probably needs psychiatric help, but that is out of reach for many due to $$. Ironically, if he lived in Canada the public healthcare system would pay for it.

Sadly, 'Mental Health' is one of the biggest fails of the Canadian Health Care System - our streets are crowded with people who might not be living on them, if the system didn't fail them so miserably...Mental health is a serious issue.

Yes, the Canadian health care system will pay for psychiatric help. The proviso being the person with the problem actually has to recognise they need that help and then reach out and get it.Mental health is a serious issue.

Everything's a mental health issue nowadays. This guy clearly knows what he's doing is both creepy and illegal. He's not crazy, just a creeper.

Creepy, illegal and "crazy" are not mutually exclusive (although the guy has not done anything illegal). Your dismissive attitude to our collective mental health is troubling.

Well, arguably you'd be better off not getting troubled by every random thing strangers say online. That'll probably do more for your mental health than whatever detriment you think my opinion has on it.
Happy new year to you and yours![]()
I'm not troubled by every random thing strangers say online: just yours.
Worry not, I'm sure the next poster will press the Post Reply button soon and you'll finally be able to move on to the next troubling statement.
Move on. You are getting creepy.

The public would pay for it. Money comes from somewhere other than thin air or a “system”.Mental health is a serious issue. This person probably needs psychiatric help, but that is out of reach for many due to $$. Ironically, if he lived in Canada the public healthcare system would pay for it.
Yeah, well, what about his sense of entitlement? Real healthy. He became fair game, as others have pointed out, when he protested the very safeguards keeping him from contacting her. The shoe can always be on the other foot…Stay classy, talkbass.
I hope between the laughs you’re all having at the expense of the sad and lonely, you’re also spending time being thankful your life path has not led you to a place where you are also sad and lonely.
