lots of people are also just mentally ill to a greater or less degree and most companies are happy to exploit your illness to take your money.

I especially like the 'yoga retreat' camp things that cost like 10-20K to basally sit around in silence for 2-3 days in some semi-rural estate to become spiritually awoken. super popular with the workaholic stress addict crowds, you know, the type who have no spirituality or belief in anything other than personal greed, who think spirituality and personal growth can are only for those who can afford a 5-6 figure paywall to achieve it.
