25% of Americans Suffer From a Mental Illness and do Not Get Adequate Relief From Antidepressants
According to the June 7th issue of the Wall Street Journal, more Americans are seeking treatment for mental illnesses than ever before, but most of them fail to get adequate care, according to a major new government study. In the once-a-decade report funded by the National Institutes of Health(NIH), researchers found that one-quarter of Americans had a psychiatric disorder in the year prior to the survey, and 40% of them sought treatment, up from just 25% who sought treatment in the previous report a decade ago. The NIH finding was that only one-third of affected people received even "minimally adequate" care -- which was defined by the researchers as getting at least two months of appropriate medication and seeing a doctor at least four times, or undergoing at least eight psychotherapy sessions of 30 minutes or more. Also notable was that just 12% of patients who saw a general practitioner got adequate care compared to nearly half of those who see a psychiatrist or other specialist. Do yourself a favor, and make an appointment with a psychiatrist. If you don't get the right diagnosis, you won't get the correct treatment.
