I think people just seem to feel like they have no purpose, or are somewhat forced to work in careers that don't suit their skills or personality which leads to depression and things of that sort. Now if you're talking people being crazy with wild mental health problems, that's probably everywhere

Yes and no. Depression is much more complicated than you realize before you experience it yourself. It refers to two separate conditions--a mental/emotional disorder and an actual emotion, and the reason there's no better terminology for differentiating them is because the actual process of distinguishing them from each other is so fuzzy. In a way, they're the same thing and in another way they're not.

Circumstances like you describe can result in depression but there's also a medical cause, and from my experience sometimes the interaction between the two can be complicated.
