Everybody wants to blame something. Usually one thing. Correlation is not causation. And causation is usually more than one thing along with things we don't know yet. It's pure cognitive bias. And if we study and know it our biases are we can change them if we want to.

People will always stigmatize something. We have separated the human into mind and body which is a falsehood. How is mental Health separate from physical health? This is a very dangerous idea for many reasons and the stigma causes suffering 2 people already suffering.

We have to it was a huge mistake the mind-body problem is a man-made construct there is no problem we are whole beings. If something is thought to be mental doctors stop looking. Recently when they treated hepatic encephalopathy my cognition improved and depression went away.
