We all have those.

On a side note, I think that in at least the USA, it seems like we have been regressing some as a country in terms of handling discrimination, mainly because of the factors I mentioned as well as people believing corrupt politicians, and that people just can't think for themselves as much as we should. That is just my point of view, but yeah, we should do better with this than we (probably) are now.

I think we all have personality traits and am not convinced that most traits rise to the level of being classified as a 'disorder'.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

People need better access to mental health services. Understood.

Glad you do understand, especially if you include education with mental health services.
There is a problem or two, though; resources...and money. Not only do some people not have enough money for those things, but resources, or lack of resources, make it hard to keep mental health services and education at lower prices. In fact, I would say the lack of resources make the cost of such things even higher.
Honestly, despite what I posted, I don't really see a way to change that for the better.
It’s not so much a lack of resources as it is a misallocation of them.
