How do we stop the Bleeding?

In my job I encounter, experience the toll of mental health on people, families, communities, and systems. As a society, through policy, we have systematically turned metal health into someone else’s problem. More times than not we have put it, shoved it, back on to the sufferer. We have national instances of violence, unfathomable violence, and we collectively respond with “what’s wrong with people”, “how could someone do this”, “that person must have been crazy”. Our chickens have come home to roost. We have created this scenario, as a society. We own this. Mental Health is a national healthcare crisis. How do we stop the bleeding?
