According to the latest report from Johnson & Johnson's Philippine Health Information

System on mental health conditions (PHIS-MH) with data gathered from 10 government
hospitals and four private hospitals, schizophrenia is the top brain disorder in the
Philippines, affecting at least 42 percent of patients who seek psychological consult.

In the Philippines, there has recently been an increased awareness about mental health
issues: from national mental health legislation to universities addressing mental health
concerns, there has been an upsurge of structural changes, mental health-related
projects, and educational campaigns for the movement. Much of the focus goes to
depression and anxiety as two of the most prevalent mental health disorders, but
schizophrenia is not given as much attention.
