Did you even read my second paragraph? Even though it might be caused by a bad work/life balance, that doesn't mean that it isn't a mental issue when you eventually become burnt out.

It's like a depressed person who starts exercising and gets some relief from that - "Oh, then it seems that your problem was your physical fitness, not anything to do with depression". It seems a bit myopic.

Again, burnout and exhaustion have morphed into "stress" in your counter argument. I sure you could relate pretty much anything negative to some kind of "stress", which means anything negative is now a mental health issue according to your logic.
