This not surprising at all. The stories of suicide in High Achieving School in Asia is common knowledge. Same can be said about "High Achieving Jobs" and "High Achieving ______"

Do we want to live or just be high achieving in life?

I'd say the good approach is to set high standards and then work towards achieving them in a supportive environment. Every the pursuit brings happiness.
To many people it's virtually the same thing, TBH...
We want status. Like, we want it so much.
