61. Mental Health: A Report Of The Surgeon General The first Surgeon general's Report on mental health, asserting that mental illness is a critical public health problem that must be addressed by the nation. http://www.mentalhealth.org/features/surgeongeneralreport/home.asp

Message From the Secretary Executive Summary Foreword ... Chapter 1 Introduction and Themes Chapter 2 The Fundamentals of Mental Health and Mental Illness Chapter 3 Children and Mental Health Chapter 4 Adults and Mental Health Chapter 5 Older Adults and Mental Health Chapter 6 Organizing and Financing Mental Health Services Chapter 7 Confidentiality of Mental Health Information Chapter 8 A Vision for the Future List of Tables and Figures Message from the Secretary of Health and Human Services The United States leads the world in understanding the importance of overall health and well-being to the strength of a Nation and its people. What we are coming to realize is that mental health is absolutely essential to achieving prosperity. According to the landmark "Global Burden of Disease" study, commissioned by the World Health Organization and the World Bank, 4 of the 10 leading causes of disability for persons age 5 and older are mental disorders. Among developed nations, including the United States, major depression is the leading cause of disability. Also near the top of these rankings are manic-depressive illness, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Mental disorders also are tragic contributors to mortality, with suicide perennially representing one of the leading preventable causes of death in the United States and worldwide. Now, with the publication of this first Surgeon General's Report on Mental Health, we are poised to take what we know and to advance the state of mental health in the Nation. We can with great confidence encourage individuals to seek treatment when they find themselves experiencing the signs and symptoms of mental distress. Research has given us effective treatments and service delivery strategies for many mental disorders. An array of safe and potent medications and psychosocial interventions, typically used in combination, allow us to effectively treat most mental disorders.

The survey collection began in April 1998 and collects information about the consultation (e.g. date, type of consultation), the patient (e.g. date of birth, sex, and reasons for encounter), the patient’s presenting problems (e.g. diagnoses, status of each problem), and the management for each problem (e.g. treatment provided, prescriptions, referrals). A detailed summary of the BEACH survey and the data collected can be found in the General Practice Activity in Australia series. Presented below is some mental health-related data from the BEACH survey and published in the Mental Health Services in Australia 1999-00 General practitioners participating in the survey managed a diverse range of mental health problems at a rate of 10.5 per 100 encounters. Depression was the most frequently managed mental health problem, accounting for approximately 33% of all mental health problems managed and 2% of all managed problems. The problems of anxiety (17%) and sleep disturbance (15%) were the next most frequently managed mental health problems.
