1/ #BellLetsTalk Time for another 🌶🧵. Today, this personally cuts deep. 6 weeks of unpaid leave from nursing. Colleagues short-staffed and struggling through outbreaks in fully vaxxed settings, yet I sit at home robbed of my identity. My career. Over one “choice.” BNRN. 
2/ #BellLetsTalk The sudden white-knight virtue signalling of those in power that have locked down their citizens and restricted them for two years right now is nauseating. Ex: here’s Doug Ford talking about mental health after closing gyms for a YEAR. All in this together?
3/ #BellLetsTalk about what losing a career or business does to your mental health. Let’s talk about how our covid tunnel vision has led to trickle-down mental damages that will be felt for YEARS to come. Let’s look at some of the academic evidence. 800,000 suicides every year.
4/ #BellLetsTalk about those that lost employment during this pandemic and having significantly higher depression scores. This accumulates over time (lockdowns, people fired)? Significantly impaired mental well-being. Refer back to Doug Ford. Refer to lockdowns for a YEAR.
5/ #BellLetsTalk “A job is not just a job…individuals take pride in how they make a living…a career becomes a part of who they are; it becomes their identity…an individuals identity is also robbed.”
Exaggeration? Tell that to those like myself. Save your empty regards.
Exaggeration? Tell that to those like myself. Save your empty regards.
6/ #BellLetsTalk I sit with tears flooding my eyes just writing this. I lower my bitter & protective armour to allow myself to weep. To finally weep for myself, and the millions of others struggling right now. Those robbed of their identity. Plagued by the bastard of depression.
7/ #BellLetsTalk The 🦠 didn’t cause my depression. Nope. Overreaching policies, mandates, dissolution of bodily autonomy, lack of early treatment, lack of fully informed consent, modern-day segregation, loss of my career, and constant anxiety were forced upon me by bureaucrats.
8/ #BellLetsTalk @PremierofNL, but I’m sure if I just go for a run, it’ll all be okay right? I’ll get my job and passion for my nursing career back right? I’m sure it’s all worth it and the lack of ANY accountability for the perpetrated harms must be awfully convenient.
9/ #BellLetsTalk I’m going to break down some key points in the next couple tweets about this. Further evidence re: the massive correlation between anxiety, depression, stress, and job loss. See next. #covid #mentalhealth
10/ #BellLetsTalk keep in mind for the next picture: Sample A had very few participants that lost their job and/or business. Sample B had far more participants that lost their job and/or business. Continued… #mentalhealth
11/ #BellLetsTalk The participants in sample B (more job/business loss) had nearly DOUBLE the rates of anxiety/depression/stress. Now… couple this with the social isolation? Separating the unvaccinated? The constant demonization? The biased media? You CULTIVATE CRISIS.
12/ #BellLetsTalk So, it takes quite the set of stones to signal to your constituents about their mental health after implementing mandates, passports, aggressive statements about private medical status, ESPECIALLY, considering they’re not even working. Again, ZERO accountability
13/ #BellLetsTalk Let’s talk about something that currently pulls me away from depression. HOPE. #TruckersForFreedom #FreedomConvoy2022. HOW DARE YOU try to smear this historical movement as anything but unification of 🇨🇦 patriots that inspire every “glorious and free” citizen?
14/ #BellLetsTalk The same media that poll about egregious and disgusting questions such as this one? We are to trust YOU people? The ones wedging a rift further and further every single day between the Country we should all be able to love? “Most trusted news,” my ass. 🍑 😵💫🤦🏻♂️
15/ #BellLetsTalk you know what’s great for Canadians mental health? Tuning out of the mainstream media. The same outlets that want to polarize us and divide us into classes of people, or gin-up conflict based on disingenuous tropes, lies, and propaganda. Like this BS headline:
16/ #BellLetsTalk 2 years later we add more restrictions, while neglecting to even face the impacts of these policies in a broader sense and other causes of suffering/mortality. Compare a May 2021 headline about an “end in sight” to BC stating passports will stay until June 2022.
17/ #BellLetsTalk And you seriously have to wonder why Canadians have had ENOUGH? Why after two years of government-enforced restrictions, we are STILL doing the same things that clearly didn’t stop the spread anyway!? We’re supposed to be so apathetic that this is still okay?
17/ #BellLetsTalk So for the remainder of this thread, I’m going to include pictures and videos that FILL ME WITH PRIDE IN MY COUNTRY. And if that upsets or offends some of you, than I guess that says it ALL doesn’t it? #TruckerforFreedom #ThankATrucker #FreedomConvoy2022
