World Mental Health Day
By Lindsay

World Mental Health Day

No health without mental health

World Mental Health Day raises public awareness about mental health issues. The day promotes more open discussion of mental disorders, and investments in prevention and treatment services. The treatment gap for mental, neurological and substance use disorders is formidable especially in poor resource countries.

Physical and mental health are intertwined. There is a real need to deal with mental health problems of people with chronic physical illnesses and physical care of mental health consumers through a continued and integrated care.
