I totally agree with this, and I will repeat a somewhat controversial view I hold: Governments & business owners directly gain power & influence in the world via their citizens/workers productivity. The western attitude to "mental illness" is shaped VERY strongly by this - when you get "depressed" working an overly stressful job with no hope of anything better, it is better to convince the poor sap that its a problem with THEM rather than a problem with the world. Then give you some pills to make it better. This dysfunctional culture will swallow up all your time, force you to work on things you fundamentally don't believe in, leave you isolated from people and then tell you its your fault for being depressed. We need to make the world stop dehumanizing us. Monkeys in cages get depressed. When 5% of people are depressed, maybe its fair to say they should seek treatment on their own. When 30%, 40%, 50% of people are depressed.... its time to adapt the world to fit peoples well-being instead of the other way around..
