Robbie Reissue

One of the disturbing topics that Robbie and I discuss in this episode is how the insurance company is able to both deny his diagnosis of ptsd and then deny his application for life insurance based upon his diagnosis of P. T. S. D.

You know that diagnosis..... they denied he had in the first place?

This is but one example of how corporations treat individuals and are free to do as they please. Robbie's story should be alarming to all of us. The poor state of mental health awareness and care in our country is disturbing. It affects our country at a basal level which leads to a very universal effect.

The state of our mental health care can be seen in our addiction rates, gun violence, homelessness, prison overcrowding, and so on.

This conversation needs to be had and changes must be made.
