I respond to Dr. Thomas Insel's blog about his views of the top ten advances for mental health for 2012.  What saddens me is that all of these advances are heavily biological and that biological medicine hasn't really succeeded very well in improving our mental health.  While these advances are very interesting, I argue that what we need is more understanding of how our social relationships form our brains and behavior.
