61. Mental Health: A Report Of The Surgeon General The first Surgeon general's Report on mental health, asserting that mental illness is a critical public health problem that must be addressed by the nation. http://www.mentalhealth.org/features/surgeongeneralreport/home.asp

Message From the Secretary Executive Summary Foreword ... Chapter 1 Introduction and Themes Chapter 2 The Fundamentals of Mental Health and Mental Illness Chapter 3 Children and Mental Health Chapter 4 Adults and Mental Health Chapter 5 Older Adults and Mental Health Chapter 6 Organizing and Financing Mental Health Services Chapter 7 Confidentiality of Mental Health Information Chapter 8 A Vision for the Future List of Tables and Figures Message from the Secretary of Health and Human Services The United States leads the world in understanding the importance of overall health and well-being to the strength of a Nation and its people. What we are coming to realize is that mental health is absolutely essential to achieving prosperity. According to the landmark "Global Burden of Disease" study, commissioned by the World Health Organization and the World Bank, 4 of the 10 leading causes of disability for persons age 5 and older are mental disorders. Among developed nations, including the United States, major depression is the leading cause of disability. Also near the top of these rankings are manic-depressive illness, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Mental disorders also are tragic contributors to mortality, with suicide perennially representing one of the leading preventable causes of death in the United States and worldwide. Now, with the publication of this first Surgeon General's Report on Mental Health, we are poised to take what we know and to advance the state of mental health in the Nation. We can with great confidence encourage individuals to seek treatment when they find themselves experiencing the signs and symptoms of mental distress. Research has given us effective treatments and service delivery strategies for many mental disorders. An array of safe and potent medications and psychosocial interventions, typically used in combination, allow us to effectively treat most mental disorders.

Suicide Prevention and special programmes Mental health Location: WHO WHO sites Mental health home Mental Health The bare facts: 450 million people worldwide are affected by mental, neurological or behavioural problems at any given time. These problems are expected to increase considerably in the years to come. Mental problems are common to all countries, cause immense human suffering, social exclusion, disability and poor quality of life. They also increase mortality and cause staggering economic and social costs. One in every four persons going to health services has at least one mental, neurological or behavioural disorder. Most often these are neither diagnosed nor treated. Mental problems affect and are affected by chronic conditions such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and HIV/AIDS. Untreated, they bring about poor health behaviour, non-compliance with prescribed medical regimens, diminished immune functioning, and negative disease outcomes. Cost-effective treatments for most disorders do exist and if used correctly, could permit affected persons to be functioning members of the community. Yet, in most countries there are major barriers to both the care and the reintegration of people with mental disorders. Setbacks include the lack of recognition, awareness, and action. Policy makers, insurance companies, health and labour policies, and the public at large – all discriminate between physical and mental problems. This discrimination leads to stigma against people who need help.
