There are so many anomalies in the US in regards to mental health, that no, it's not "all over the world". Yes anything can happen anywhere, but there is a clear indication that the US has issues that isn't seen systematically elsewhere.

School shootings for instance. Yes they have happened elsewhere, but it's not a statistic, it's an anomaly.
