This is not science, and as an opinion piece it's going to dissuade people from seeking mental healthcare. There is not one bit of data in both the piece and the book. Without actual science you cannot improve the methods, or even know if the thesis is actually correct. It's most likely false, because mental healthcare is both expensive and scarcely available. So it cannot be responsible by sheer numbers.
