Subject: Re: The world-wide estimated are at 25%, and the USA at 26%. That makes the USA no different from the average.

Übergeek 바둑이: Figures from other organisations put the figure of people with mental illness higher, being 1 in 3 of all Americans. Stating that the NIMH figures are based on old data.

Though the danger through Victorian style stigmata and the lack of universal health care makes these figures more on a concern then in Europe, as many will never be diagnosed and/or given the treatment and care they deserve.

... Lifetime prevalence estimates put the US figures at about 57%

Or if you work in the CIA 100%
