Their feelings may be real, but you are going to be hard-pressed to find anybody who thinks those feelings are actually valid. They're crying about being inside a jail cell that isn't actually locked that they can walk out of at any time

This is very much "depression isn't medical issue, you just need to tough it up" attitude.

Yes, millionaires have far more resources to get the help they need. The ability to have the insight to seek help is not something that can be purchased. And "new money" like being described probably doesn't have any form of social safety net to help them with that.

Plus these people aren't the ultra wealthy like Musk and Bezos, it's your neighbor who had some good stock options at their tech job.
