They should also add medications that you are forced to take to the list of things that cause obesity. That's not a 'lifestyle choice'. It's typical of people's lack of ability to empathise that causes that belief.. the Daily Mail/Express have a lot to answer for too.

It's a combination of stupidity & the media, & general lack of understanding & compassion for people.

I wonder if this also causes brain damage, as it says itself, it's certainly not ideal.

Unfortunately psychiatrists have such a blinkered approach to 'treatment' that if drugs don't work it is 'treatment resistant', as if there is never anything else that could help in any way than chemicals.
Yet they are able to wipe away any liability they have for people's further health complications and often their deaths, as a result of polypharmacy/dangerous prescribing.
Too much power without accountability.

It's Not going to change either.

That's pretty much how any 'treatment' on the brain goes, they don't know enough about it to not cause damage.

Comprehensive psychological / social / integral understanding, help & support if appropriate & done properly doesn't cause such damage.

Comprehensive psychological / social / integral understanding, help & support if appropriate & done properly doesn't cause such damage. I mean physical treatment on the brain, from lobotomies to ECT to meds. They all damage or disable some part or all of the brain in some way.

The online world seems such a self promoting, airbrushed one, not surprised. Loads of people selling lifestyles as well. There's a quote from Simon Wessely in there that says "the researchers still cannot definitely say that social media causes poor mental health", not sure what else they are saying

I have a few people who are selling dieting products on my friends list, one of them is always posting selfies, I suppose she thinks it helps sell her products. But she is very slim and I think teenage girls are too influenced by those considered 'role models', i.e. female celebrities that have access to money, personal trainers and plastic surgeons, along with digital aids. I imagine they compete with each other too, to see who gets the most 'likes', or the most boyfriends, which is very unhealthy. For a start 'likes' mean nothing, and people can still hate others (if not more sometimes) for looking conventionally physically attractive. Boys don't have to like them to want to sleep with them either. I can see the messages the media gives them are all very counterproductive regarding their wellbeing in general.

Even the celebrities themselves are sucked up into the plastic world, Madonna's latest reported 'enhancement' looks like an example of that.
It must be quite a bit easier to stay fit with a chef and a personal trainer, in a world where most supermarket aisles are full of sugary or salty food.
