"Milburn... appeared to suggest yesterday that #work was always good for those with #mental ill-health or #distress, despite years of #evidence showing that #DWP pressure on #disabled people - particularly those with significant levels of #anxiety or other mental distress - has been closely linked with #deaths, including #suicides."

    I especially appreciate this point ~ that discontent is necessary as an indication that something needs attention. It’s the whole #symptoms are #messengers idea. If we just try to push #suffering away so we can be “normal” and functional, we might never understand the cause.

    This is #dhamma territory for me. We need to build #distress #tolerance so we can turn toward pain ~ unless it is debilitating or causing harm of course ~ with wisdom and see the causes, not just the symptoms.
