I can appreciate how this would be incredibly controversial. I think part of the biggest problem with this decision is that everyone is agreeing that the reason for diagnosing people with a problem is so that people can get insurance coverage. So we are going to change how we interact and support people in our society just so that insurance can cover their support. It probably means that we need to actually reassess how we provide mental health care coverage for people under insurance rather than creating diagnoses for the insurance companies.

Also, I agree that the drug company response to this is also another big concern. Given that there have not seemed to be significant advancements (if I'm wrong please send links!) in depression and anxiety research that has provided actionable treatment options beyond the pretty blunt SSRI and other antidepressant and CBT, I could totally see drug companies just find more similar drugs that have the same blunt effect and tell people they need to be medicated. I realize those drugs have provided some life-saving help to some individuals, but it would be great to better understand specifically what causes those feelings/sensations/thoughts and find truly targeted mechanisms for understanding. The same is probably true in cases of extreme grief as well
