¿Somos todos enfermos mentales? es un libro escrito por Allen Frances, quien fuera director del Manual Diagnóstico y Estadístico (DSM). En esta obra, Frances reflexiona sobre la tendencia actual de medicalizar aspectos normales de la vida, convirtiéndolos en trastornos mentales que requieren tratamiento. El autor advierte sobre los peligros de esta deriva psiquiátrica, impulsada en gran medida por intereses farmacéuticos, que podría llevarnos a considerar a todos como enfermos mentales en busca de una cura constante. Frances hace un llamado a la reacción, instando a salvar a la gente normal de esta medicalización excesiva.
