"Whilst I cannot stand Tony Blair and I appreciate a lot of people have real mental health problems and I’m not belittling any of that, I do think he has a point. Life is fucking hard. My life is fucking hard. I struggle to cope with it sometimes, people ask me how the hell I cope with it. I rant, I cry I disappear. It’s not a mental health problem, it’s the cards I’ve been dealt. Life is hard for most people. Probably harder than it’s ever been. I am no way saying people don’t need help. I have a child with issues. It’s just my thoughts on it. " There are undoubtedly people who work the system, mental health is the new bad back. I have a daughter who was diagnosed with aspergers at age 6 and children's mental health support is and was a fucking joke (shes 18 now) I still think Blair has no place to comment on the issue with his background | |||

The sad part is that genuine problems get passed over when people latch on to the latest ‘thing’, as the OP said above there are unfortunately people for whom this is the new bad back and will milk it, making it harder for those who need the help to be identified and treated. | |||

"My Thoughts on Tony Blair’s Latest Rant About Mental Health I’ve just seen Tony Blair’s comments on mental health, and frankly, they boil my fucking piss. As someone who served in the military, I can’t help but feel a knot in my stomach every time I hear him lecture the public on who’s really “allowed” to speak about mental health struggles. The man who, alongside President Bush, pushed our armed forces into a war under false pretences now has the gall to say people are self-diagnosing? It’s beyond insulting. I’ve personally battled stress, depression, and anxiety for years, and I’ve shared many of these experiences on my website like The Darkest Thoughts, where I’ve spoken openly about how paralysing depression can be. I’ve managed overwhelming feelings with medications, writing about that journey in Antidepressants: A Personal Account. Over time, I also realized how vital it is to speak up and reach out—something I explored in When Depression Silences—Why It’s on Us to Reach Out. The fact is, thousands of veterans came home with invisible wounds, and Tony Blair’s dismissive remarks only add insult to injury. When someone influential claims that mental health concerns are exaggerated, it undermines the very real struggles so many of us face—military or not. It also reinforces a harmful stigma that discourages people from seeking help. If you send men and women into conflict for questionable reasons, you can’t be surprised when their mental health suffers. You certainly shouldn’t brush it off as “self-diagnosis.” We need to continue sharing our stories and advocating for more resources to help those affected by decisions made without transparency or care for the long-term consequences. It’s time Blair recognized the harm he played a part in. Dismissing an entire population’s mental health issues as overblown or self-inflicted is not only heartless—it’s dangerous. Speaking for myself, dealing with depression has been a daily battle—one that requires genuine support, therapy, and sometimes medication. The worst thing we can do is minimize each other’s experiences or treat mental health like a political talking point. If Tony Blair wants to understand the true impact of his past actions, he should start by listening to those who still struggle under their weight. We aren’t self-diagnosing. We’re living with legitimate medical conditions, recognised by professionals, shaped by traumas we never asked for. And we’ll keep talking about it, sharing our journeys, and standing against any rhetoric that tries to belittle the reality of mental health struggles. If Blair really wants to help, he should begin by acknowledging the far-reaching consequences of his decisions—then maybe we can move forward and address the crisis that so many of us are living with every day."

Good people like yourselves fight wars so tgsf people like ourselves are free to express an opinion. Whether you agree with it or not everyone should be allowed an opinion....even Tony Blair | |||

"I feel for you OP, I was on the anti iraq war protest in 2003, along with 2 million others. It's still the largest protest ever in the UK. We knew it was a lie. But Blair & bush decided to do it, and killed a million Iraqis in the process. Not to mention the damage done to their own soldiers. None of this was done for Iraq or Iraqis, it was done for bush. Everyone else paid the price. They both belong in the Hague, but the way the west runs. Only non Western leaders can be war criminals apparently. One day things will change." Blair had the option to decide to go to war without asking parliament, he however gave every MP the chance to vote on whether to go to war or not, our MPs voted to go to war, the vast number of MPs who voted against war were Labour MPs and 2 tory MPs, | |||
