      1000% agree with you. But this is the old dilema of being idealistic vs being practical:

      Yes, there is abuse and it is horrendous. Yes, the system must be changed. But if you are ill, right now, you shouldn’t try to change the system, you should try to get better. And even when it is sad to have to resort to these tactics. It is practical to use them, given the current state of affairs.
