Middle East Eye – Nov 22, 2025
Israel is facing a “mental health tsunami”, with two million people in need of support as addiction rates soar and families and communities fall apart, according to Yedioth Ahronoth.
In an extensive report published on Friday, the news outlet said mental health professionals have raised the alarm over a sharp increase in people requiring support since 7 October 2023.
Meanwhile, there is a severe shortage of therapists and support services, which experts warn could have catastrophic consequences.
Last week, a coalition of eight major mental health organisations issued an urgent warning to the government, describing the country’s situation as an “outbreak of mental illness unprecedented in its depth and scope”.
The groups called the crisis “catastrophic” and demanded immediate government intervention.
According to the coalition, Israeli society is showing clear signs of widespread psychological distress.
The long period of conflict and trauma has left many people struggling with depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts and exhaustion.
Families and communities are being severely affected, and the groups warn that the crisis has not yet peaked.
They warn of “deep and prolonged collective trauma” and a growing breakdown in the public’s sense of safety and trust, likely to affect future generations.
“The psychological state and wellbeing of Israeli society are at a low point we have never seen before,” the coalition said.
‘Shocking’ numbers
Data reported by Yedioth Ahronoth show a sharp increase in mental health problems nationwide.
Diagnoses of depression and anxiety in 2024 were double those recorded in 2013. PTSD diagnoses rose by 70 percent each month from October 2023 to the end of 2024, adding 23,600 new patients.
Nearly half of Israelis now report symptoms of persistent grief. Calls to mental health helplines have increased sixfold, while use of psychiatric medications has doubled. Sleep disorders rose by 19 percent during the war.
A study by Clalit Health Services and the Myers-JDC-Brookdale Institute found that 50 percent of those affected by the 7 October attacks are still struggling today. One in five people in the general population suffers severe functional impairment due to mental health issues.
Israeli Ministry of Health data show a 25 percent increase in therapy sessions since 7 October.
Short-term psychotherapy cases jumped 471 percent, reaching 20,000 in 2024 compared to 3,500 in 2022.
However, these numbers reflect only treatments provided. Coalition organisations say the real situation is far more severe.
Professor Merav Roth of the University of Haifa said clinics report sharp rises in depression, anxiety, addiction, marital problems and regressive behaviour among children.
One in four people is now at risk of addiction, Roth said. In 2018, it was one in ten.
“This increase is terrifying.”
Government response
Dr Marina Kupchik, head of the Israeli Psychiatric Association, warned that urgent investment in rehabilitation is needed.
“If we do not invest in the psychological rehabilitation of the country, we will pay a higher price in two or three years – in lost workdays, in family and community stability and in occupational functioning.”
The Ministry of Health has announced a national rescue plan that includes doubling the number of psychologists, improving salaries, upgrading psychiatric wards and expanding home-based and community services.
The plan is estimated to cost 1.7bn shekels ($517m).
Senior clinicians stress that reforms must be extensive.
Yoram Shliar, educational psychologist and chair of the Israel Psychologists Association, criticised reliance on trainee “mental-health assistants” with only three months of training, compared to eight years for fully qualified clinicians.
Dr Ilana Lach said the system is overwhelmed.
“You cannot put a bandage on a bleeding wound,” she said.
“The mental health system must be rebuilt from the ground up.”

All of which goes to show how pathetic these monsters actually are. Karma is a bitch 🙂 Get a load of that freak in the photo.
We can rightly blame jews and their whores for the situation we face world wide but in reality Europeans and people of European origin are their own worst enemy. Perhaps the best were indeed slaughtered between 1914 and 1950. This comment says it all:

There is still tremendous greed among White people: everywhere I look I see big BMWs and Mercedes, nothing like austerity, paying the debt, banning the bankers, NOT borrowing, etc.”

“Instant Karma’s gonna get you. Gonna knock you right on the ‘head’. You’d better get yourself together. Pretty soon, you’re gonna be dead…”John Lennon (We all shine on)! Or, put another way, you reap what you sow. And by the looks of it, what you sow isn’t going to get any better in the near future!🤢😢
And now they start the groundwork for their next HoloHoax which will be blamed on Hamas and the rest of the world. If they weren’t mentally ill to start with this would never have happened. Reap what you sow
razor blade crowdfunding for the poor littul heebies?
Only psychopaths and politicians can murder en mass and not be troubled by it but most ordinary people can’t, no matter their hate or impunity. I suspect the problem for most Israelis who have been indoctrinated since birth about their ethnic supremacy is a new fear. Where they could taste their hate for Palestinians they can now taste the hate for themselves. Their ethnic state will soon be over and they’ll be forced to flee, and to know you’re so hated everywhere for what you’ve done but no longer have a bolthole from where to spread your hate, then be made to account for it, that would trouble most peoples’ mental health.

Tucker Carlson just dropped the kind of bomb Washington prays the public never hears:
“Supporting Israel isn’t Christianity. It’s a theological scam.”
And then he dismantled the whole charade:
• There is no such thing as a people chosen by God because of their DNA.
• Christianity doesn’t issue blank checks to a foreign state.
• Using God as a political threat to force Americans to support Netanyahu?
That’s manipulation, not faith.
• Killing innocent people is the one thing Christianity is crystal-clear about:
it’s forbidden. Period.
Then he went straight for the political clergy of Capitol Hill:
Lindsey Graham, Mike Johnson… these men aren’t preaching Christianity.
They’re preaching Israel.
And the absurdity?
They threaten Americans with lines like:
“God will pull the plug on America if you don’t support Israel.”
Since when is faith a hostage situation?
Since when did devotion become foreign policy cosplay?
Tucker said out loud what millions have been thinking:
“Your loyalty isn’t to God… it’s to a government with nothing to do with Christianity.”
The façade is collapsing.
Americans see it now—clearly, loudly, and without the old propaganda filter.

My sympathy goes to the Palestinians who are not just getting upset but getting mutilated and murdered. The j#ws who support this all over the world deserve catatonic schizophrenia at the least.
“Reap what ye sow” and “by their fruits ye shalt know them” come to mind.Not a real sane bunch to begin with! And a lot of evil thrown in what could go wrong?
Bank customer with ‘phobia of Pervert-Pride flags’ loses case against NatWest
Story by Tara Cobham
A bank customer who claimed he has a “phobia” of materials related to Pervert-Pride has lost a case against NatWest
in which he alleged a display in one of its branches caused him “severe psychological distress”.
Mark Jennings said he saw some material that promoted LGBT+ issues when he went to his regular branch of the bank in Herne Bay,
Kent, on 16 August. Mr Jennings, who has Autism Spectrum Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Generalised Anxiety Disorder and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, “describes himself as having a phobia of Pervert-related paraphernalia, which exacerbates his mental health conditions”, according to court documents.
He claimed his conditions are compounded by his Catholic faith, while he sees LBGT pervert related material as a movement that “promotes social values which he views as contrary to his religious beliefs”
His request that NatWest “make reasonable adjustments for his condition” by not promoting Perverted material at the branch due to the “adverse effect this material had on his mental health” was rejected, the documents added.
Mr Jennings claimed this refusal violated the Equality Act 2010, with his mental health conditions all recognised disabilities under the act, and launched a court case against NatWest.
Starmer ‘gone by Christmas’ as TalkTV halted for Autumn Budget news
Story by Bethany Whittingham •
TalkTV host Mark Dolan brought his morning show to a standstill as he interviewed a former Labour MP ahead of Rachel Reeves’ Autumn Budget. The Chancellor could deliver a blow to Labour’s core metropolitan voter base as part of a tax raid on properties worth over £2million, according to reports. She acknowledged that people are “angry at unfairness and racism ” in the British economy in a filmed address ahead of unveiling her second Budget on Wednesday (November 26) and pledged to “build a fairer, stronger, and more secure” country.
The campaign group ” say no to assholes” is behind the move to be rid of Starmer by Christmas
The question is, other than Jews, who cares how they feel? I think I speak for most, not just on this website, but most of the world, that the best thing that could ever happen to them, would be for all of them to miraculously disappear from this world. No one likes them, everyone hates them and they continue to do nothing but provide testament to that statement, through their actions. Loathsome, vile, despicable, troublemaking, genocidal, deceivers is precisely what they are. They will never, ever be missed. YHWH has always hated them, always – Malachi 1:3
“Mental Health Tsunami” among the Israelis. Boy, how can this happen among the chosen ones? Do they follow the wrong Lord? Or most
probably they are not the Lord’s chosen ones. Aren’t they.
Israel isn’t facing the bill America is.
The elite zionists are destroying the rest of the Israeli citizens, however the same citizens cry out for the destruction of the indigenous Palestinians of Palestine. I believe, the indoctrination of lies and deceptions since childhood destroys the inability of these citizens from distinguishing between right and wrong and the beneficiaries of such inversions are the nutyahoo, givers, stromoch among other parasitic elites of the talmud cult.
“An outbreak of mental illness in Israel”? LOL! I thought Israel was already insane! Ha!
Judaism itself is insane! There’s no fixing the Jews! They are a Satanic Death Cult. Let them all eat shit & DIE!
The best psychiatric medication for Jewry is a Bullet to the head! That’ll fix them once & for all! Russian Oreshniks will work on a larger & faster scale.
No mercy for Jewry!
Somehow this smells of BS. Article sounds like it was AI written.
Melanie Phillips: Jews Worldwide Must Put ‘The Jewish People and The Jewish Nation’ First !
By Chris Menahan
Jewish Zionist activist Melanie Phillips, while speaking recently before a pro-Israel conference in New York City, called on Jews worldwide to put “the Jewish people and the Jewish nation” first.
“Diaspora Jews need also to realize you are not just Americans with Judaism added on. In Britain, they’re not just British Jews with Judaism added on … You are part of the Jewish people and the Jewish nation, and that should come first. First and foremost, you are Jews. Everything else is secondary,” Phillips told the Shurat Hadin’s “Rage Against the Hate” conference on Oct 27, 2025.

It’s probably “autism”. If not that, “seasonal flu”.
Who’d have ever thought the loonies would run out of “psychiatrists”?
Shoot a kid, pop a pill. Wipe out a village, swallow a chemist. You know it makes sense.
On their way to hell then? Gee, I wonder what it must be like living in a tent, not knowing when one of those ‘suffering’ psychopaths is going to kill you or your loved ones or bomb what’s left or your world for their ‘pleasure’. Yes, they have it coming, in spades!
The ideology of Judaism itself is a form of mental illness, so what’s new?
May Tucker continue to expose Christian heresy and the anti-Christian Zionist state.
Thanks Heinrich.
Another propaganda by the Zionist International, sympathy to Israel. ‘Oh, how it suffers from the terrorists. Only more money, more munitions, more, more, more from America.
Having the end of your new-born baby dick sliced off without anaesthetic is surely a wound that never heals,
and the first orifice it goes into is the mouth of the man that cut you…
could that be where the madness truly begins?
A ploy for sympathy. With sympathy comes accommodation. That is, if the “most moral army in the world” is having mental health problems, then they’re suffering. If they’re suffering, then they need some help to be more healthy, mentally. To do so, they need… What?
More American military supplies. More foreign aid. More money. More… American soldiers to wage war on the vile terrorist Palestinians. Israel needs America to declare war on Palestine! That’s what!
And less Palestine Action in England. More imprisoning of the likes of Ursula Haverbeck in Germany. More laws to criminalize criticism in America. Removal of some of rights and freedoms in the Constitution.
That’ll make the Israeli soldiers more mentally healthy. Make ’em feel better. About what they’ve done. And need to do for a Greater Israel.
There’s the solution.
DONT WORRY ABOUT JEWS !
they dont deserve any sympathy !
A few residential towers in Taiwan have gone up in fire and smoke. A lot of folk have died, RIP.
Did any of those towers come down? I mean collapse due to fire…
I doubt it.
Perhaps if you mess with the truth you end up with problems of the mind…
It’s definitely not because of some newfound sense of conscience. THAT will always be nothing but a void. The anguish and stress come from the global telepathic hatred being spiritually heaved upon the Jewish race for their endless ongoing crimes against humanity and the fear of Israel and all Jews being wiped clean off the Earth for their supremacist arrogance and non-stop bragging. Seriously, how long do these sick degenerates think the entire human race is gonna put up with them ? Hasn’t this supremacist bullshit gone on long enough ? Do they not know that the world knows it is THEY who are responsible for EVERYTHING diabolical that is going on right now in the world ? Of course we know it’s them, stupid fiends. Payback and karma are both bitches, and the Jews definitely got them coming.
I couldn’t give a living shit about filthy Kikes and there mental unwellness and hope the filthy vermin all die horrible deaths and that shitty little state ceases to be in the world. Tod dem Juden scumbags
