The US, along with the rest of the world has a capitalism crisis, the mental health issues are just a symptom of the root disease. People broadly speaking, need connection and meaning in their lives, and the capitalist systems most of us are slaves to does not even come close to providing it. Heck it actively seeks to avoid providing those things, as if people had them they might not need / want to work so damn much. When your choices are spend 60+ hours a week working at one or more jobs where you could be laid off at a moments notice to protect the "Profits" of the already wealthy, or you know just fucking starve, it's no wonder so many people are stressed and depressed. The world these days for a heck of a lot of people is like an automatic hamster wheel that keeps spinning faster and faster, and if you can't keep up you die. Sounds like a surefire recipe for a "Mental health crisis" to me...
