I’m so pissed right now
Recently heard about a teacher getting knee jerk fired for being under the influence of alcohol @ work
This is what failed addiction, mental health & education policy/leadership looks like in a pandemic
No support. No plans. No compassion
A Rant/Thread

Just people left to survive day after day, when people are hurting badly
And when they desperately need help the most
You fire them.
Leave them w/ nothing, but untreated disease
To protect a shield, a name or brand
Instead of doing the right thing

Instead of doing the right thing
Getting people the help they desperately need for A MED CONDITION
GIVING PEOPLE A CHANCE to tx the underlying conditions
To get healthy & feel loved & supported when they need it the most
And to be brave enough to publicly declare the truth
Addiction is not a moral failing

This isn’t an anomaly
This isn’t a deviation
This is modern times
And it’s wrong
And it is the inevitable end result of not doing anything to support teachers for the last year
Asking them to just “figure it out”
Which makes this a cultural failure of compassion & caring.

This is the end result of doing nothing to support the mental health of those impacted in the highest risk categories.
This is the end result of not caring enough about people - when people need to be cared for the most.
It’s heartbreaking.
And it’s only the beginning...
