I once had a guy at the local science museum tell me that attempting a PhD will either give you a mental illness or alcoholism.

My anxiety became worse after I joined PhD. I started having panic attacks. I am glad I decided to drop out. After dropping out, I found that I had BPD. So turns out I already had mental illness and PhD just made it worse.

BPD or PhD, close enough
