Highly Educated May Have Poorer Mental Health

What amuses me about
these results is that the researchers describe them as surprising. We all know the smarter you are, the crazier you are. Who hasn’t lamented the fact that stupid people have it easy because they don’t have to ponder anything deeper than their navel? Duh. Of course smart people are unbalanced.

Though I question the conclusion that it’s highly educated people, not just smart, self aware people — who would of course tend to be highly educated.
