So every single person who committed Seppuku/harakiri/Junshi was mentally ill?

I fully reject the idea that all suicide is the result of mental illness, especially such culturally ingrained ritual suicide.

Yeah, that's crazy. Just because it's wrapped in some kind of religious moral code doesn't make it ok.
