A white collar job can become a mental torture chamber if you are surrounded by bad people. There is an abundance of exploitation, bullying, futility, and lack of fulfillment in current tech culture and very little support structure.
Mental welfare is very different from survival.

Do you really think anyone on this site would claim blue collar workers don't confront suicide?
