It just struck me as being an example of psychiatric totalitarianism. If you say someone has an underlying whatever they can not prove you wrong because they are, by definition, unaware of it. Psychiatry and psychoanalysis did that all the time. Here you can't kill yourself without being labelled as depressed. You might have been on dialysis for years, it might be anything, and along comes some private school boy wet behind the ears and he is prepared to commit you because you suffer from depression. It just seems kind of ignorant and invasive.
