I think people who appear to be better off than they really are can be too easily overlooked by psych professional. Most of us live out lives perfecting the art of hiding our symptoms for fear of being "found out". I'm not sure why professionals so often overlook that. If I worked with mentally ill people whatever they don't readily show is where I'd begin.
