It would require better societal structures and labor laws to address mental health, which requires political will. However, just like climate change, this is a thing where you'd have to make society pass through a local minima before reaching a global maxima, and as a result it is very difficult to put this in front of a politician even for the slightest bit of consideration.

And unlike the more vocal counterparts of minorities who take to the streets when they feel aggrieved, people with adverse mental health keep suffering in isolation, so it's difficult to make a political issue out of it in the first place.
