Do you have any idea why that is?
Maybe because you feel it's just not right, even though you "know" it is?
I agree that "cup of tea"-thing, no fear but reintegration, is one of the most important things. Acceptance of yourself by accepting every part of you, including depression (and mania).
I believe the emphasis on symptoms only and seeing it as an illness are serious roadblocks.
I generally fear illnesses, even if I know I have them.
