       Handbook of Climate Psychiatry and Psychotherapy: A Manual for Clinicians by Elizabeth Haase, 2026The results of climate change--more frequent and intense storms, extreme heat, and prolonged wildfire seasons, among others--are leaving a wreckage of socioeconomic consequences for society and future generations. Increasingly, attention is shifting to the neuropsychiatric damage and emotional effects of the climate crisis, including traumas, anxiety, grief, and rage. #books#climate#psychiatry

       1/2It's essentially saying: "The external world is broken and the systems in power won't fix the root cause (emissions), so instead, we are going to medicate and treat you to accept and tolerate the broken reality."It pathologizes a perfectly normal response to an objective crisis. Being anxious about the destruction of your environment isn't a chemical imbalance in your brain; it's a completely rational survival reaction. #ClimateChange #psychiatry
