Haaretz: Israel’s mental health system is on the verge of complete collapse

According to Webangah News quoted by Tasnim News agency, following the increase in problems and mental disorders among the Zionists after Gaza war, the Hebrew newspaper Ha’aretz announced in its new report that the mental health system in Israel (Occupied Palestine) is collapsing and dozens of psychiatrists have gone to England with the aim of a better and more stable life.

Haaretz He added, the migration of psychiatrists abroad is done in a situation where the demand for mental health services among Israelis continues to increase due to the Gaza war. The heads of Israeli mental health centers sent a letter to Israel’s supervisor Metanyahu Engelman last week and warned about the complete collapse of the mental health system. He had talked to the psychiatrists of this regime and reported that Israeli psychiatrists believe that they will earn more in England. But what causes the migration of these psychiatrists from Israel (occupied Palestine) is the feeling of frustration and dissatisfaction due to the large amount of work and the lack of feeling of improvement in the current situation. Especially, it is expected that the workload of psychiatrists will be much higher in the current situation (Gaza war).

This source added, the mental health system in England is more organized and the workload is also less.

Haaretz continued its report and announced that according to the Israeli medical workforce, the number of Israeli psychiatrists has decreased by 19% over the past decade and there is only one psychiatrist for every 11,705 people.

Shmuel Hirschman, director of the Israel Association of Mental Health Centers, announced that we are facing a shortage of more than 400 psychiatrists and this number is expected to increase within 5 years. Since the beginning of the Gaza war, the demand for mental health services and the employment of psychiatrists has increased, and since October 7, about 300,000 patients have been added to the number of mental patients in Israel who need treatment by specialists.

Results of research and The studies of the relevant centers of the Zionist regime show that a large number of Zionists suffered severe mental disorders and injuries after the Gaza war, and their addiction to alcohol and drugs has increased. “Shelvata” Mental Health Center stated that the events of October 7 had a wide impact on the mental health of Israelis and caused Israelis to turn to addictive substances more than before. Surveys show that 16% of Israelis surveyed have increased their nicotine use, 10% have increased their alcohol use, and 5.5% have increased their use of cannabis. The use of addictive drugs such as strong painkillers and sleeping pills has also increased by 11 and 10 percent, respectively.
