humans are weird- mental health
now that i think about it, everyone and every living thing will have severe mental health issues upon being put in a bad situation or environment, like how dogs and cats will sometimes get anxious and yell and bite at you if you are a bad owner. and how some plants will be scared when you are a person who has done harm to it before.
so now I wonder, will aliens or other species and life tackle this mental health thing? or do they, like animals and plants, just think it's some form of instinct?
lets see how this goes baby
(also, my apologies for the weird English and maybe a switch between the UK and US ver of the language)
as the Terrans announce they have made a station at a dwarf planet near the Intergalactic Transportation Centre (ITC) that specializes in the form of psychology hospital for checkups and therapy sessions.
a few of the more advanced species in the Galactic Union were happy and most of the latter were confused.
psychology? hospital? what is this, do the Terrans think lowly of us so much that they had opened up a "mental hospital"?
upon seeing the rage of 99% of the Galactic Union ( Many species within systems, something like the EU on Earth) because of this newly opened hospital/ clinic/ office that made others feel they are unwell in the head, the Terrans called upon a press conference.
"We have heard of the unhappy feedback of the newly opened office. And I am sure all of you are aware that we humans are one of the sentient species that specializes in biology, especially the brain." The human, dressed in black with a white inner collar shirt paired with a black tie, a way of dressing different from their military, must be one of the Congressmen or a high authority figure.
"We opened this clinic/ hospital/ office because of various reasons. One is because as much more humans are traveling through the galaxies with the crew they are assigned or out on missions and events, we can safely say that more than 30% of our population, are in space, always on the go."
why do the human keep on talking useless speech? why do they not go straight to the point of this conference? such a waste of time.
"However, space travel isn't easy. it isn't quick either. so our kind has to sit through a very long transport, deal with their business, which takes roughly around a few months to a few years, and return back to home world where another long period of transport is needed."
do humans think they are the only ones with this problem? they might be new but they sure are demanding and self-centered aren't they?
"due to this fact, many become homesick and are dealing with chronic depression from the uncomfortable traveling and all the foreign work needed to do. with this and our conducted survey for both our kind and everyone else in the Galactic Union, we have deemed that unfortunately, many of our and your kind are in a very bad situation in terms of mental health "
the human sent everyone who is watching this channel or present a link to a video created by humans ( the link is in the word mental health)
what... what is this? mental health?
upon watching the video, X'aangrak't seemed to understand now. he now understands why humans were so awfully looking all the time.
"because of the risk of illness and the result that comes after we do not wish for our allies and our kind to fall into such a despairing place. we know we are not the only ones with the problem of homesickness, workplace bullying, abuse of power, and many other negative actions. generations, and generations, we and all of the life here have tried the resolve the issue of lives committing suicide acts just to come back to square 1"
the human wasn't wrong, lives are unique, and they are only able to form under the perfect circumstances in a system. so suicide cases is one of the major issues that the council of the Galatic Union has sought to fix
" so we come up with a plan, to not only help our kind but also all of the life that is existing in the Galaxy."
That's a bold move, how is a hospital full of drugs and equipment going to help us? if the issue the Galatic Union can't do anything to resolve this, how do they think they are going to do so?
" as us Terrans, although great at talking, is not so great in terms of communicating our thoughts and feelings. This is very well-known back at homeworld, so humans throughout history have studied how emotions and feelings affect a person and have made effective treatments and even categories of why a specific person is dysfunctional."
oh really?
" so, for the sake of yourselves and your kind. the Galatic Union has come this far thanks to all of you. however it is undeniably true that space travel and work, is a heavy subjects that all of us carry inside, the pain sorrow, and tiredness you feel will eventually bring you down to the depths of despair and agony. so for your sake of yourself, give a visit to the new centre we opened, it is specialized in our feeling and emotion.'
...
" Be not afraid of letting your emotions go sometimes, as to be healthy is to cry, and soothe your own person, it is not a shameful act. but a powerful one That, is the end of my conference."
as the human steps down the stage and heads back to the vehicle transport, many reporters tried asking questions and begging for answers, but to no avail. no reply, just like how the humans in speeches and public has been
maybe... maybe i should give the centre a chance...
as X'aangrak't looks outside of his crew ship, with no one to talk to and always alone despite everyone on the ship. while the stars shone brightly outside in the galaxy, there has always been this feeling in his chest, maybe this time
he will feel better

Raphie,
What do you do when you feel fine when you’re around people but the moment you’re alone, you’re really sad because of the intrusive thoughts because you’ve been trying really hard to work on yourself but it’s never seemed to work over the years that you’ve been alive and you know that you’re going to be like this forever and there’s nothing you can do about it, no matter how hard you try to NOT be impulsive and energetic for people because you’re afraid of pushing people away and being to much for people because I’m too energetic?
…
Asking for someone (totally not me)
OK, Skully, hear Raph out:
What is the point of living if ya can't be your true self?
Your impulsivity & your pulsating energy is nothing ya should get rid of (of course this excludes negative impulsivity; ya know, if it has bad consequences for ya).
Your feelings are understandable tho cuz society wants everyone to be the same.
If people don't wanna be with ya, then that's a them problem! Cuz, ya know, being yourself isn't a crime. (unless ya hurt someone & ya love to do evil stuff, then MAYBE it IS a crime)
Of course, not everyone will like you. That's a hard truth. But that's ok, cuz...
... why should one bother with people who aren't on the same wavelength?
Doesn't make sense to me.
But it's not easy to get into this mindset, so yeah. It takes a lot of work.
An' my last point: intrusive thoughts are not the truth.
They mock ya & they feel so freakin' overwhelming & they can sound so very convincin', but they aren't true.
