Mental Health percepcion is different nowadays.
The World Health Organization has crystallized some troubling facts about mental disorders and they warrant our attention:
- 800,000 people commit suicide every year.
- Suicide is the second leading cause of death in 15-29 year olds.
- For every completed suicide there are 20 others that are attempted.
- Mental disorders double after trauma such as participating in or being victimized by war or being a victim of a natural disaster.
- The leading cause of disability in the United States is the combination of substance abuse and mental disorders.
- There is a very high correlation between mental disorders and an increased risk of getting sick from other diseases including HIV, diabetes, self-harm, and unintentional injury.
