One in eight individuals worldwide lives with a mental health disorder. For many European countries, the prevalence is even higher, with one in four people reporting mental health problems [1]. Three-quarters of all mental health disorders develop before age 25, with many presenting initially in undiagnosed forms already in the mid-teens and eventually manifesting as severe disorders and lasting into old age [2]. There is also growing evidence that mental health disorder symptoms cross diagnoses and people frequently have more than one mental health disorder [3].
全球有八分之一的人患有精神健康障碍。对于许多欧洲国家来说,这一比例甚至更高,有四分之一的人报告存在精神健康问题[1]。所有精神健康障碍中有四分之三在 25 岁之前出现,其中许多在 10 多岁时已经以未确诊的形式出现,最终发展为严重障碍,并持续到老年[2]。越来越多的证据表明,精神健康障碍的症状跨越了不同的诊断类别,许多人同时患有多种精神健康障碍[3]。
