Dunno why you seem to think calling attention to your own mental health is denigrating people...the hell is with Americans having this stupid stigma with mental health?
What is even happening here? First off, singling out users of a given country is inflammatory and accomplishes nothing of worth. In addition, equating certain posters being dissatisfied in a video game with people in need of mental health assistance and therapy is being denigrative to people in need of said help. Your own anecdotal experience, while perfectly valid, does little to exonerate your point of view in this instance. This isn't all that complicated a concept, and I'm not entirely convinced certain posters are engaging in good faith at this point in the discussion.
