-While there is evidence that certain mental disorders (in particular schizophrenia and [[Asperger's Syndrome|autism]]) are strongly associated with inceldom,<ref>https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/article-abstract/2494707</ref> but as people with these disorders are in the minority of the general population, and men who have, or who are experiencing involuntary celibacy are quite a large group, one cannot conclude from this that the majority of incels are mentally ill.

 The issue of causation is also essential here, as inceldom can lead to mental despair, severe depression, a general decline in cognitive function, and substance abuse.
