Caterpillar Nation 5: Understanding Mental Illness

On today’s podcast, “Understanding Mental Illness”, we will examine different forms of mental illness. This will not be an exhaustive list but an important place to start given ½ of all people will experience mental illness in their lifetime and at any given moment 1 in 4 adults and 1 in 10 children are experiencing some form of mental illness. Mental illness exists on a continuum sometimes there is the presence of strong symptoms and sometimes symptoms are mild, diagnoses are made when a certain number of symptoms are presented and have lasted over time. This information is meant to inform but not diagnose different forms of mental illness, only a licensed mental health professional can make a diagnosis after a formal evaluation.
