A 24-year-old exchange student from China is in graduate school in London when she develops palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, fatigue, and headaches. She visits a primary care team, and following a thorough medical work-up, receives no medical diagnosis. Instead, her primary care provider recommends she start weekly visits with a mental health counselor. She improves a little bit, but the symptoms don't disappear. The mental health counselor refers her to a psychiatrist, who diagnoses her with a depressive-anxiety disorder and prescribes antidepressants. Then, suddenly, the student drops out of care.

She says that in China her symptoms are called by another name — neurasthenia or a stress-related condition.
