I can not talk about how things is done in other countries... but everyone who reads Psychology (and/or psychiatry) in grade school knows about Aaron Antonovsky and the "sense of coherance" theory. Everyone in health care who study assistant nurse and up knows about this theory.

So this is not something new or unknown about. It is not biology or social.. it is biology and social. Both play a part.

I live in a Scandinavian country and we are very aware that loneliness is an important cause for depression. The problem is.. you can't force people to be social. Family might be the problem. So drugs can be a solution until you find a more permanent solution.
