(If I could comment to the Lancet, I'd write:

I agree with the author that the language is illogical, but the 
author too expands the scope of the psychiatric interventions for 
illness.  If the DSM hadn't so expanded it's descriptions, and if the 
drug industry hadn't increasingly offered medication for any mood or 
symptom except bliss, then maybe health and illness would not have 
gotten conflated.
