Adult Mental Health

Optimal mental health plays a vital role in overall well-being for many individuals. Depression stands out as a common mental health concern among older people, potentially leading to chronic medical conditions like hypertension, diabetes, or lung disease. Accessing primary health care services is crucial to prevent the perception of poor health in adults and mitigate further complications. Building social support, fostering meaningful connections with loved ones, and staying connected are key factors in maintaining mental well-being. In 2023, approximately 21% of adults (equivalent to 52.9 million people) experienced mental illness, while 5.6% experienced serious mental illness.
