Hold on right there mister. Capitalism Corporatism says you can’t afford to die yet. Better squeeze at least 10 more soul wrenching years out of that miserable existence of yours.

Only then can you be allowed to go die in the climate wars.

Edit: It’d be hypocritical to blame capitalism when I often call out people for not understanding what capitalism is and using that word instead of a more accurate terminology.

a lot of wealthier people have ideologically inherited psychopathy.

Source for this? I was born with lots of allergies tested very soon after birth and they faded over time, the opposite of what the above theory would suggest.

From my own experience with migratory itches (perhaps different than this condition) or itches that are replaced as soon as scratched with one in a different location, the only cure to this is to simply ignore them until they go away which takes mental discipline. Luckily the "episodes" I have only last maybe 10-20 minutes and then the itching stops.

Perhaps my understanding is not correct? Have we not essentially figured out that the increasing frequency of food related allergies is related to the topical application of food derivative proteins in a largely functionless manner in cosmetic and cleaning products? Baby body encounters new protein in wrong context (like peanut derivatives in a skin cream), arranges immune reaction, then later deploys that reaction when the child finally gets around to eating that thing rather than having it rubbed on its skin?

Is that model not well enough validated, or is my understanding flawed?

If this is the major contributor, isn't this an easily soluble phenomenon by subtraction, rather than addition?

Because most people who get get schizophrenia without support networks go homeless, at least in america. You’re seeing them, they’re just on the streets and undiagnosed.
