Dangerous title for this article and I am not sure I like it. That being said I personally think lack of exercise and desk jobs are having a very big negative effect on mental health in general. For anyone that has owned a dog - especially a larger high energy dog - what happens when you keep that dog inside all day and do not take it on walks or let it run? What if you then also provided it with all of its favourite food and plenty of fun dog TV shows and games and stimuli but still forced it to sit in a 500 sq ft box all the time? The dog would go nuts - anyone who has owned one knows this - they become an anxious mess. Some of them become self destructive, some of them become neurotic and repeat weird behaviours, and some just sit there and look sad. Are we really all that different than dogs?
