Do we have studies that confirm this? Or just based on your observations?
Diagnosis rates may be higher in western countries but doesn't translate to higher cases of depression due to many undiagnosed ones
Not saying you're wrong, though. I can imagine culture playing an important role here. The more collectivist the culture is, the more support, therefore less incidents of depression probably? It's good to have empirical evidence for this, nevertheless
