I think there are more people being treated for mental illness today. It is more recognized as a problem than in the old days. The people that are not being treated for their mental illnesses often cause others to have problems.

I think that because we know more today then years past, it's more "diagnosable" with a name instead of everyone's "strange Aunt Sue". Plus, there's a diagnosis for everything now a days, from picking your nose to sleeping too much. Take a look at one of those DSM books the psych drs. have. My 16 year old daughter was diagnosed as being a "drama queen", and there's actually a technical name for that lol....

Well for one there are more people on earth than ever before. And we now can better understand a little more about MI than we use to. I don't know percentage wise if there are more than there was long time ago are if we just notice it more because we now live closer together than we use to.

I think everyone has something wrong with them mentally in some way.

most defintiely yes!
my opinon is that their is so mnay people trying to keep their sanity to themselves in public as well as around family/friends cause of the embarrassement that would happen.my doc once told that there is no cure for depression cause its a widely spread epedemic and even if you do get the help and treatment that would still not cure what depression is,its just a way to CONTROL it.i think everyone around me tries to be"happy" and sane,but in private they are wandering what is wrong with them and why they feel this way
thats why you hear all these kids killing other kids or teachers or parents...b/c thats the only "way"they feel that is going to releive whats wrong with them!And especially if there's something going on in their life that they can't control.depression is so terrible that i think its as bad as cancer,honestly..its wide spread and eventually no cure and it can cause death.thats my opinon...hope you like it

yup cause doctors have to put a name on everything... with all the meds they have ppl on it has even caused those with simple problems to have serious problems... for example ME... i went in with bi polar... which everyone has to some extent... and came out with bi polar schizophrenia twitching and a whole buttload of other issues... its pathetic really... i suggest to anyone try coping without medications.. they really arent good anything that isnt natural isnt a good solution

yes...definitely...I think you're one of em' head cases
