"It is utterly grotesque!
None of the messaging has been supportive, positive or hopeful.
It is a constant diet of doom and gloom with no hope in sight.
I must say it feels very much by design and very sinister!

"One must conclude, it is done to achieve compliance and acceptance of every freedom and liberty stripped from us.
It is disgraceful.

"I really do not like to use the term ‘mental health’ for children who were once happy, carefree, vibrant and busy.
