I think it’s extremely odd as a younger American. And frankly, I think the reality is that many people agree with the Australian/my perception, but know to just keep it to themselves instead of trying to change the culture.

My biggest gripe is that (1) not everyone has easy access to a therapist and (2) it’s not a magic bullet. Additionally, (3) it’s inconsistent with the norm of avoiding personal health topics in professional environments.

I guess what I’m saying is that many, many Americans agree with you, even if that doesn’t come across in the corporate or pop culture zeitgeist.
