I'm not a Dr but couldn't "presence of severe emotional loneliness" be a symptom of depression? And if so, could this lead to disability discrimination if the depression met the disability criteria? All seems a bit vague and woolly and open to abuse and misunderstanding if you ask me. It seems a recipe for miscarriages of justice, and innocent lives wrecked, even if it has the best of intentions.
