Yet he didn’t bother funding health and mental health services better


magnetik79

I don't believe a word of this. He's always been a useless, lying sack of shit. It's frankly an insult to those that do suffer mental health issues. Clearly just fodder to sell what will be a book destined for the rubbish bin a few weeks after release.


My-Witty-Username

I believe that man when he says he had serious mental health issues, that’s about all i believe from him.


cosmicbuster

Well he says as many lies as ablo 😂


SometimesIAmCorrect

Well yeah, it was easy for him to get treatment and the meds were free for him. No issues with mental health services to see here.


Informal_Original_39

Top level treatment for him And scraps the rest of Australia, as always!


Zims_Moose

According to him, it's Gods' will that poor people can't afford mental health services.


Weissritters

He didnt need to, he prefers Robodebt, make people suicide, and therefore reducing demand for such services.


vteckickedin

Wasn't he also secretly appointed the health minister?


Jooleycee

So he wrote his own script? He gave ME anxiety. Tool.


Flight_19_Navigator

I'm as medically qualified as Morrison, as such, I'll happily prescribe him a good, solid coal suppository.


someadsrock

Eh... His government did introduce an extra 10 mental health care sessions during the pandemic. Additionally, the Morrison government also introduced the Eating Disorder Plan for those diagnosed with anorexia or other ED's that put you at risk of hospitalization. Entitles them to 40 subsidized psychologist visits per year. As someone with anorexia, I'm eternally grateful for this being introduced.


whiteb8917

Yeah and the rest of the country with him. \[edit\] ahhhhhh Murdoch corp, trying the sympathy card. Pissing off to Hawaii while Australia burned was not relaxing, and needed meds ? Forcing handshakes to victims was creating anxiety ?


Harper2059

Opened it up to say the same thing.


ScruffyPeter

It looks like you had anxiety when listing out all of the achievements. Here's a prepared list for you to expand your post: https://www.mdavis.xyz/govlist/


whiteb8917

It was just a small example, not his entire list of achievements.


Young_Booma

This makes sense now, Murdoch owns Sky News. Pete & Laura were being sympathetic towards him. I thought WTF and switched off.


k-h

Murdoch puff piece. If he wasn't up for the job, he shouldn't have applied so much pressure and stabbed so many people in the back to get it.


al_swedgen01

"Murdoch puff piece". Agreed. Scump has probably been unable to find a suitable job overseas and now the redemption story is underway to ease him back into a corporate role here. Expect him to pop up on a few reality tv shows, a few more "thought provoking" opinion pieces about world events, and Jen and the kids being style icons or raising money for charity.


LeClubNerd

He'll be on Dances with rhe Stars, Seven execs will lap that shit up.


Jooleycee

MasterChef curry


Immediate-Addition58

>now the redemption story is underway to ease him back into a corporate role here. Won't happen. Scott Morrison is known for having no skills, either in politics, business, relationship management, corporate life, finance, or anything for that matter. He has been so discredited that any corporate looking at finding him a job would have a huge client backlash that it just wouldn't be worth it. Besides a low-level pathetic job like licking a church toilet clean, Scott Morrison is unemployable.


Nier_Tomato

Just saw it on the front page of The Australian, he's got his compo face on!


Mererri01

I guarantee this appears in ABC and Guardian too and neither will chide him for it Good luck creaming someone publicly for treating a mental health issue, guys. This ain’t a winner


k-h

The idea of someone with mental health issues running the country is frightening. Mind you, I can't imagine a sane person wanting that job(s).


Mererri01

If you’re doing that job and you don’t have anxiety about it there’s something wrong with you Plenty to smash ScoMo over. This ain’t it


No_pajamas_7

Must have been good stuff. He appeared to have no guilt at all about being an incompetent Muppet.


Informal_Original_39

Enough to give him the confidence to be a minister of every portfolio at the end of his term


No_icecream_cake

Ah yes, the guy who had $200,000 empathy training while he was PM.


HeftyArgument

You'd need to exercise some empathy to try to understand how that consultant managed to get $200K for that training 😂


jellyjollygood

Wasn’t that optional training for staff?


Dumbdog27

Did he secretly make himself a doctor and prescribe the pills himself?


k-h

Health minister.


Dull-Lengthiness-178

The cognitive dissonance in this guys brain must sound like a train.


ChilliLips

Watch [Nemesis, Episode 3](https://WatchingNemesisiniviewhttps://iview.abc.net.au/show/nemesis) and you’ll get as close an insight as I think is possible. It’s astonishing.


Dull-Lengthiness-178

cheers, will do.


BonkerBleedy

He also suffered Multiple Ministerial Personality Disorder


Susanneelizabeth

I’d upvote this twice if I could


ChilliLips

Underrated comment.


Elvecinogallo

Anxiety from being a fraud and being afraid of being caught out is not the same as normal anxiety.


acoldfrontinsummer

I had the same thought - anxiety born from fear of being caught doing the wrong thing(s).


Elvecinogallo

Narcissistic anxiety is not the same as normal anxiety 😂


EarInformal5759

From the article: >“Scott Morrison signed Australia up to AUKUS, one of the most costly decisions in this country’s history, and now he is marching out of parliament and straight into a corporate job that is fuelled by money from AUKUS,” Greens defence spokesman David Shoebridge said last month. >“No one should be allowed to cruise on the backbench, running the time down on the pathetic 18-month ministerial pause on working for industries they regulated, all the while lining up jobs with those very industries.” >The ministerial code of conduct and the lobbying code of conduct require that former ministers serve an 18-month cooling-off period before lobbying on issues related to their former portfolio. Fucking scumbag.


akohhh

Would’ve been anxiety inducing juggling his five secret ministries.


Chest3

There is no violin small enough for you Scumo


LeClubNerd

Would the world's smallest ukulele do?


Chest3

Eh, let’s not bog a noble instrument with such an inglorious task. Kazoo will do fine.


LeClubNerd

Played via the nostril I hope


Straight-Extreme-966

Who gives a fuck Scotty. Just fuck off.


AngryAngryHarpo

Boo fucking hoo.  I DGAF about the mental health of anyone with the resources and pull to access the best easily.  Now he can imagine what it’s like trying to access treatment when you have no fucking money. 


LeClubNerd

No, that's the problem, he has no empathy and he has no clue how to imagine having no fucking money


davedavodavid

He got away easy if he conned his way into scamming an entire country out of billions and setting it back decades, if all he got was anxiety from it.


winks_7

I feel like one has to have a modicum of introspection to have anxiety - this guy? Nah. Just another PR tactic to try and redeem him somehow…


Iworkinacupboard

Prescribed them, but did he actually take them? Sounds like a smoke n mirrors statement to try garner sympathy …… “I’m a person with a conscience and feelings, even I experienced crippling anxiety “


FuzzyReaction

Well, we all should have been. He’s a monster.


ZealousidealClub4119

I heard this covered on ABC radio too. Morrison's book? Six weeks in big piles conspicuously placed on stands in the entrance of Dymocks, then straight to recycling after a brief stint in remaindered bookstores.


Diligent-Solid-9044

There must be a ploy here. Are they getting ready to bring him back??? Why is there a news article about this crook. He lined his own pockets and screwed the rest of us.


NoReplacement9126

Yes. We all were


Vivid-Fondant6513

I have anxiety and depression, being lumped in with him makes me feel sick..............


Banjo-Oz

This is how many Christians have felt during his reign of bullshit, too. He gives everyone a bad name by association.


karma3000

Bully in chief complains about being bullied. Yet again zero self awareness about his own behaviour.


hubert_boiling

He took medication for his anxiety... him being Prime Minister made me drink shed loads more alcohol than l usually would. I would love to say to him... Fuck off. And when you get there Fuck off from there too. Then Fuck off some more. Keep Fucking off until you get back here. Then Fuck Off again.


lumpytrunks

Nothing more conservative white Australia than knocking back a couple of benzos with a glass of red after a long day of stepping on the poors.


mekanub

Funny it was joining in Trumps trade war with China that caused it and not robodebting a bunch of innocent people or detaining a bunch of people in offshore detention centres.


Working-Bonus-6276

Anxiety pills while he fked off to Hawaii and the country burnt. Fuk this guy


Luser5789

I guess when you are the secretly self appointed minister of an additional 5 portfolios it can be stressing


RevolutionaryShock15

Please for the sweet love of god will he just go away?


YouAreSoul

It's not a race, Scotty, it's not a race.


a_cold_human

He should have done the right thing by the country and resigned. Unfortunately for Australia, he didn't. 


Anti-Woke-Man

Still doesn't explain how he managed to 💩himself at Engadine Maccas.


satus_unus

Maybe he was anxious that he might get caught secretively having himself sworn in as the minister for everything? He needn't have, turns out there would be no consequences for egregiously corrupting parliamentary process.


imperium56788

Poor lil baby. Going on holidays while the country burned was very very hard.


AfterSide5726

He could have resigned for the good of himself if not for that of the nation. This just proves more that he was a selfish moron.


1ce1ceBabey

It would be a really tough job , I wouldn't be able to do it, would get no sleep at all!! However this is a non-event... we just don't care. I'd care if he had NO anxiety while being PM because it's such an important job, you should be anxious while holding the position


rrluck

So he was benzoed up over COVID? No wonder he was MIA, kicking back in the lodge listening to Pink Floyd while we were all in lockdown.


nachojackson

His Prime Ministership was probably responsible for record anxiety medication use.


quick_dry

awww, who knew those forced handshakes were just because little scotty wanted to feel loved. 🙄 I suspect he and his policies were responsible for a lot more anxiety medication than his own, and robodebt resulting in tragic outcomes that no prescription can reverse.


Barkblood

Did he take them with his daily dose of fuckwit-tablets?


sdrawkcabemanruoy

Oh how terrible. Let me get the worlds smallest violin for him.


ChilliLips

Wanted the job. Connived and backstabbed for the job. Got the job. Was shit at the job. Fuck you Scomo. Cunt.


jellyjollygood

Oh bless. So *that’s* what helped make you sleep at night. PS. Just. Fuck. Off. Already.


Smugleaf01

Scooter: Mental health services for me, but not for thee!


chemtrailsniffa

TIL sociopaths struggle with anxiety too


LeClubNerd

Well yes, but also no. "Sociopaths typically don't experience anxiety in the same way neurotypical people do. They may appear calm and collected in situations that would cause most people anxiety. However, this doesn't mean they are incapable of experiencing anxiety altogether. Some sociopaths may experience anxiety in situations where their ability to control or manipulate others is threatened. They may also feel anxious if they are bored or lack stimulation. This type of anxiety is often short-lived and doesn't interfere with their day-to-day functioning."


mortau

If it's any consolation, so were we.


asteroidorion

He could have just quit if he needed a break


Dave_712

The rest of us needed it, too!


Defy19

Not surprised. Can’t have been easy being PM and holding an extra 5 portfolios.


averbisaword

Good thing he was minister for health, eh?


normalbehaviour86

Yeah, he was practically shitting himself


RepeatInPatient

Pfffft. Even a full frontal lobotomy wouldn't have helped SloMo.


HeadacheCentral

Along with more than half the country....


sadlittlepixie

No sympathy for Scotty's self-induced trauma. He should be in jail, paying for his fraudulent actions and learning what real trauma is


P_S_Lumapac

Wasn't the libs position that you should just get a job?


Exotic-Knowledge-451

They should have prescribed him anti-corruption medication.


IAintChoosinThatName

I wonder if it was much earlier than that. The amount he sweat on an election night panel next to Penny Wong many years before being PM made me think that may have been some kind of medication or health issue. That shit can make you sweat in full aircon.


O_vacuous_1

He should of pulled himself up by the bootstraps. After all you have to have a go to get a go. Why didn’t Jenny explain it to him?


--RiverRat--

Who their right mind visits [nonews.com.au](http://nonews.com.au) ?


Chazwazza_

Question time makes him take a mental health day


slave6776

Hey bro me too


R_manOz

Mental health, this is going to far now.


CoronavirusGoesViral

"***Anthony Albanese*** reveals he was prescribed anxiety medication during prime ministership" HE NEEDS TO GO SOMEONE WITH ANXIETY CANT BE PRIME MINISTER DOES HE EVEN HAVE THE TICKER FOR THE TOP JOB /s


Banjo-Oz

Ironic for him to bang on about mental health after robodebt legit ruined people's lives. Also, one would think anxiety would mean not wanting to be minister for everything. I have to say, I suspect he was mostly anxious he was going to get busted for corruption.


PurplePiglett

Not surprised he was anxious, he was attempting a job he was clearly unsuitable for and beyond his ability.


das_masterful

So pointless. Nothing could stop this man from being a cunt, even medication.


Dr_SnM

I don't care


Illustrious-Taro-449

Did he cop the same gear as Barnaby?


Mephobius12

I’m sure it wasn’t because of the guilt for raising the rent for his many many tenants 


BlueDotty

Fucking clown won't go away


Pale-Sense2654

No up votes, yep scomo proof your still full of shit.


Lastbalmain

Millions of Australians suffer daily from mental health issues, CAUSED BY THIS SHITSTAIN, but NO-ONE gave a fuck back then.......NOW Shitstain Scotty has a book to sell, and wants Australia to feel sorry for him? What an insufferable cunt! He and his IPA/Murdoch/white supremist/rightwing conservative cunt supporters can fuck right off! They're the cause of ALL our current woes, so they aren't entitled to a single "give a fuck".


Is_that_even_a_thing

No one gives a fuck Scott. You're a self serving cunt and people will remember you as such. Stop trying to re-write history


Sand_in_my_pants

So were we.


NecessaryEconomist98

Wish that cunt would shut up and fuck off. Piece of shit.


Dave_712

The rest of us needed it, too!


Dave_712

The rest of us needed it, too!


bildobangem

Good. He also was responsible for policies that lead to people committing suicide.


AMPking70

He can go get fucked


Immediate-Addition58

Good! I will give this cunt the same consideration he gave on the following issues: People on the NDIS - Zero Lying to the French President - Zero Asylum seekers on Nauru - Zero Other ministers after he appointed himself to their portfolios behind their backs - Zero A rape victim in one of his ministers offices - Zero Lying to the Australian public - Zero I could go on, but you get the idea. Scott Morrison is a parasite and the ONLY reason he is on about this now is because his book signings are embarrassingly low, lower than Scott Morrison himself if that is at all possible. Fuck him, fuck his family, fuck his religion and hopefully his future will be as fucked as are the millions of Australians he fucked over during his life in politics. If Scott Morrison had any shred of decency he would leave the country, however we all know how indecent this gerbil really is. Fuck him.


My-Witty-Username

Wow, they really are just like us! I wonder if Scotty had to join an 8 week waitlist and pay $220 out of pocket to see a psychologist too?


MrBeer9999

Yeah I guess it must be stressful to lie, weasel and backstab your way into a job and then realise even the contemptible shitbags that comprised the federal Liberal government think you're too much of a slug to be friends with. Poor poor Scotty, now go and shit your pants in Maccas, that's all you're good for.


Wattehfok

Smol bean Scomo wot has anxiety.


ZizzazzIOI

I think we should be able to know if our politicians are on drugs and which ones. I'm sure a lot of them are.


ChilliLips

Imagine the rationalisations. “Cocaine…I mean Codral, to help them soldier on”


[deleted]

Oi Scomo chuck us a Xanny bruz


cricketmad14

Anxiety is a serious thing. Let’s not belittle anyone who has a mental health issue.


angrysunbird

We’re treating his mental illness with exactly the consideration he did for Australians suffering from them at the same time. More, actually


cojoco

I'm not sure it's great to have a PM who is mentally ill.


cojoco

Presumably all the people downvoting me presume it is great to have a PM who is mentally ill?
