> She has, in any material respect, a perfect life. She has food, clothes, a supportive family, a great job, plenty of money, etc. There is nothing "wrong" with her life. Could it possibly be that there is more to life than these things?

Could be, but those things are the basics; lack of them is a cause of misery for people in today's society. Depression is something that makes you miserable even if all objective factors about your life are stable and comfortable.

    Could be, but if you can figure out what exactly it is and how to package it nicely, then you'll become a billionaire overnight.

      Could it perhaps be that there are things people need that can't be bought? Hacker news is pretty depressing.
