I'm going to for other reasons, though, honestly, I think its very much cultural and maybe heritable, and I'm not Lithuanian.

Other issue is anti-depressants, they were found to raise risk of suicide. (which also makes dubious their efficacy at anything; the suicide rate is the only objective measure of depression that is not co-measuring the whining, and it's not improved by anti-depressants. Suggesting that the anti-depressants are an "anti-whining medication")

I'm not an expert in depression or suicide or Lithuania. If you're high risk for any reason (like living in Lithuania), it would probably be a good use of your time to take a look at research.
