bulldog2,
one thing i've noticed is that depressed people fall into a cumulative spiral for social reasons;
the Western ideal at least helps and admires certain traits and not others; you don't have to read too many news on-line today, to see for example that the homeless have become a sport for a Clockwork Orange-like ethic. Despite the hard efforts of NAMI, DBSA, NIHM, etc., i think that dominance is ingrained in our culture.Squiggles
