It seems to have been more prolonged for Ola Wong. I’m not sure how long the manic state / hospitalization lasted, but the overall recovery seems to have taken a year or two (before he felt confident to write professionally on refugee issues again). Seems to have been treated as a (severe) crisis, with therapy and lifestyle changes. I agree that most would probably not have had the same reaction to the same circumstances. But after listening to Ola’s story I wonder if you couldn’t produce some instability in most people if you take something they care deeply about (in Wong’s case Sweden’s future and the role of his profession in it) and have their social surroundings deny obvious truths and thereby jeopardize it...
