I don't necessarily disagree, but if he was a self isolating loner what makes you think he would actually help himself and invest in his mental health? We could have all the acceptance and mental health access in the world but you can't force someone to help themselves

You can't force anyone to help themselves, but it's also true that eliminating barriers to access improves the chance of people helping themselves in the first place. I know I'd engage with mental healthcare more if it was more accessible, and I've already been in therapy and psychiatry for years.
