I don't think we're ever going to get to the bottom of mental illness until people in positions of power develop empathy.
Firing someone, banning them from campus, chasing them for masses of debt, and so on and so forth are things that make people desperate. Until we can fix that, this is just going to happen again and again.
And no, that doesn't mean living in some sort of happy joy world in which everyone keeps their job forever and passes all of their exams.
It means living in a world in which failure doesn't mean complete loss of everything. A world which isn't 'get rich or die trying'.
