Yes-only because it is used as an excuse to justify crimes.

Yes the rates are rising,,so are taxes and immigration,,I guess our two countries are suffering from the BB syndrome,,Bush and Blair,,both are a pair of tossers who love nothing more than being in the limelight,,no wonder we have high rates in mental illness,,I know I am suffering,,it's coz I'm sick,,sick of Blair and his labour loonies and all the other no hopers such as the doogooder brigades,,my grandfather who fought in two world wars would be turning in his grave right now at the state of this country,,the best news I have heard lately is that Blair and Bush will not be around too much longer,,the sooner the better.

I can't see how much more it can rise. It appears like the majority of people suffer from some kind of mental illness due to stress and another major factor: Poor nutrition!
