  • To clarify a bit, the group is a subset of young men and they arent pretending. Its a matter of how different groups express the symptoms of their disorder. Because a man does not express his depression in a typical way does not mean he is pretending not to be depressed. The article even mentions a retrospective study that looked 3000 men who killed themselves and 60% of those men went to therapy but the issue is that this group presents atypical, externalizing depressive symptoms which can lead to them not being recognized by conventional diagnostic instruments". Therapy is not a one size fits all remedy and its common that a tailored approach is required and instruments be updated.

    We dont blame or diminish mentally ill people for being mentally ill. Its that simple.

    The first part is true. Why would you want corporations knowing about you. But the government part doesn’t make sense. Why should your data be kept from the government? The government is the one organization I trust with my data because they hold records on every single citizen and have no monetary incentive to sell or misuse it.

    My data in this case being stuff like Name, Address, workplace, family, medical history, employment history, friends.

    Stuff I wouldn’t want the government knowing would be my hobbies, my chatlogs, my search history. If they want that they should get a warrant.

    I’m OK with the government buying/collecting and using stuff like location data if it’s anonymized. I understand this stuff is needed to see general trends in the population and plan accordingly.
