Boomer Talk is Real Talk & 2day 's Relevant Topic Mental Health P.P.

Healthcare has CHANGED (as in pre & post pandemic) & will definitely continue to change (as anyone who has had there1st "Tele Doc" appt. can plainly see or not if you havent yet figured out how to use the camera?) As the Paradigm Shifts we will see less & less physically of medical staff & more & more of "Smart" equipment.  However Mental Health & Drug Abuse are both Soaring in many communities according to recent articles, but especially in the Black communities, we are hit hardest as usual. & Honestly as far as Boomers' go  increased use of prescription drugs, street drugs, of course alcohol & the Boomer Fav, Cannabis (which has resurfaced in aholentha' form & fashion) has been on the rise pre-pandemic & now just keeps going up & up. However the focus today is based on articles about the skyrocketing Over Dosing in St. Louis, Ohio & Philadelphia just to name a few, happening too much along with the Too Many Murders of young Black on Black in these same communities.  What can be done?!?!? Is it really a Mental Health Issue?
