Mental Health Diary La Dekol Episode 1

 Mental Health Diary La Dekol Episode 1

According to the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (APMS) , over one in five adults (22.6%) had a common mental health condition in the UK, and according to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) one in every five Americans experienced a mental illness.  About 20 years ago, most Nigerians probably had more financial problems and barely emotional problems.

 

Today,  according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in Nigeria, one in four of the adult population is suffering from mental problems. This is particularly alarming compared to other countries.

Nigerians are certainly far from being the happiest in the world. Guide your mental health.
