  It always upsets me when rabbi's who are not experts on mental health challenges always say that there is some kind of brain disfunction, or chemical imbalance and therefore the suffering individual needs a psychiatrist to prescribe them a psychiatrist drug.  For the past 60 + years they have been searching for that chemical imbalance and still have not found it.  And they never will find it.  The only chemical change in the brain is either from an accident or from taking psychiatrist drugs.

  I know that Rabbi YY is not at fault...but I know that he has many friends and students that are psychiatrists and the whole structure and of the APA is total sheker and control ...

  Ah, the Ponzi scheme of politics!

  If you live in relationship to Gd, every situation provided for you through the permissive will of GD, is of use!  As with Joseph, had he not been sold, mistreated, abused, used, he would not have been able to save the Jewish people.  Gd's heroes are quite different than the hereos identified by the world!  Indeed, it is more than about who you know and who has your back!

    I think learning Chassidus daily in a sincere, real, and authentic way, with full presence, changes our day and keeps us anchored in this flow.

  So some are trapped and fooled by kelipa. by worshipping the moon and sun. by thinking intermediaries are the real thing. by thinking the quick fix is the real thing. BUT, who created all these false lurkers, these false intermediaries, etc. Hashem itself! What's going on? ITS ALL A TEST! Hashem Himself sets up the sitra achra, the kelipa, the false intermediaries only to TEST a person, only to give free choice real meaning. without these false intermediaries we don't really have free choice. Even Adam Harishon was told what NOT to eat, and so was given free choice. We still pay the price today, but we can even rise higher than him, if we always pass the test.....

  Sometimes one can't approach the head of the organization. you have to get past the Gabbana, the secretary, the gatekeeper. Perhaps the early avodah zorahnicks felt that G-d was too aloof, too distant, unapproachable. so they turned to the intermediaries, the sun, moon and stars.

  Isn’t it ultimately better to get as much as the vessel can hold? We end up benefitting more that way, don’t we?

    Yes, but being a vessel which holds g-dliness is a limitation and idoltry in itself, isn't it? One has to be a vessel like a follow of divinity of HaShem through it. Like Rebbe himself he didn't hold the divine Connection with HaShem rather became a vessel which connected everyone through this divinity, like let the Divine of HaShem follow from you to reach everyone....atleast that's how I understand the Rebbe from a far.

  The carpenter USES the hammer made by another, the worker USES the tools made by another, BUT HASHEM not only makes the tools of the sun, moon and stars but also continues to vilify them as he uses them for their respective functions. He even vilifies them as fools worship them.
