1. it is one thing to say that culture can make depression worse

Just as french soil makes wine grape grow, a bad culture can make problems grow, but what I resent is the idea that this feeds into the idea that depression is not a chemical, the old song that if only we were good people, all this would go away. That is exactly the sort of thinking that leads to utopias, which leads to dystopias once utopias clash with reality.
