> So mental health is not actually accessed medically and simply self-reported.
Saddly from my experience self-reported is about as accurate as any medical professional. When I was actively seeing professional help it always started off filling out PHQ-9, adding up the numbers and seeing the sum in the range of depression.
I was never officially told I've been diagnosed with anything but it was enough to where I've gone through a plethora of psychiatric medication.
