We also imprison more people than any other nation on earth, and have the highest per capita incarceration rate -- even more than China. We are an outlaw nation, apparently, so are you surprised we are also more mentally ill? We kill millions of people for oil, and are the only industrialized nation without national health care. Republican health care plan is "Don't get sick." With a society that selfish and sociopathic, are you surprised people have mental problems? MLK, Jr. was right when he said "The greatest purveyor of violence on earth is my own government." Of course when you live in a society with that kind of lack of conscience a rational response is insanity. We spend more on health care per capita than any other nation, primarily using toxic drugs and "medicines" yet have among the worst health outcomes of all nations. We poison our people with drugs loaded with side effects, including anti-depressants that cause suicide, and you wonder why Americans have poor mental health?
