I think you're being a bit harsh toward the article here. I think it's well supported that just like physical health (e.g. being overweight), maybe even more so, it's near impossible to help someone with mental health issues that doesn't want to be helped. That's not to say that others can't affect you or that you don't have a responsibility to care about and protect the mental health of those you interact with. But it needs to start and end with each person themselves. Yes, there are network effects, but each person needs to acknowledge the problem themselves before they can become a part of the solution, both toward themselves and others - and this article helps people do that by highlighting the issue.
