My conjecture for the underlying root cause is that there are more childless single women in the left wing samples. This is a population that has more borderline personality disorders and bipolar disorders. Especially as they age and remain single and gradually realize that they can no longer easily have children.
Mental disorders hits women especially hard post menopause, especially when they're still single and childless.
Every video that I've seen on YouTube or TikTok of a leftist going crazy and losing their minds over Trump winning or appointing a conservative Supreme Court justice, features women.
I don't think it's selective editing or a bad sample. See Lee Jussim's papers on how stereotypes are highly accurate.
Yes, women are higher, but childlessness cannot explain very high rates of mental illness in females who are below 20. A lot of the increasing mental illness is also seen in children, see especially the teenage girls and transgender problem.
Crap take: there are three major phenotypes, pastoralists, farmers, foragers (Andreas Hofer). There are three types of selection (Grime, Winemiller, Rose), each corresponding to a type of dating strategy and beliefs (TurdFlingingMonkey). Even without social media or government intervention, people will naturally behave one way or another.
Has people run digit ratio, left-handedness, far-sightedness, shoulder-to-hip (or hip-to-height ratio), GFP, Dark Traits v Vulnerable Dark Traits, and maternal age studies yet? Those are often interlinked with one another for pre-existing mental issues.
Conservative people like me are more prone to clean everything on the house, we have best personal hygiene, we didn't like to have casual sexual encounters (mostly because hygienic reasons). So, this is not a "mentality" issue, we are talking about hygiene. Most of the mental problems are associated with bacteria, fungus, and parasites. The problem with the left is mostly bad hygiene, not use of adequate chemicals for cleaning on house (or not cleaning the house at all), bad ventilation on the house, more animals into the house, more casual sexual intercourse, more similar friends that didn't have good hygiene.
Would be interesting to know the relationship between depression and the decreasing levels of religious faith (specifically Christianity) in the US & Europe. Sadly, this factor would get ignored for no good reason by any mainstream think tank / academic.
"The most common objection to my study was the reliance on medical diagnosis, as opposed to self-report symptom scales. Well, all these other studies basically used symptom scales, and they find the same thing. The only worry remaining is that there might be test bias, i.e., that lefties are more likely to self-report and acquire symptoms of issues because they are more open to them, and this would then lead to an inaccurately large difference. This requires a measurement invariance study, which has not been done as far as I can find. So that task remains, but really, how much do we think this likely accounts for? Almost all such 'where is the measurement invariance study? If you don't have it, I will presume your finding is spurious' are examples of isolated demands for rigor, since these are almost only made to left-hostile findings, not the other way around (find me any study of measurement invariance of the higher openness, IQ etc. of left-wingers!)."

Rates are higher for the youngest people, who would not have any children in any case, so this conjecture seems quite false.

Social media use seems like a likely cause of mental illness

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

I haven't read through every study summary carefully, but this seems like it could very well be a self reporting measurement issue.
Conservatives are more masculine, stiff upper lip, the silent but strong types. Liberals more famine, therapeutic and honor victims.
These tendencies would likely differentially affect self reporting of depression. Do any studies attempt to account for this?
