This article discusses the rise of mental illness diagnoses in America and potential implications for other countries. The rate of Americans diagnosed with mental illness has dramatically increased in recent decades. A variety of factors may be contributing to higher diagnosis rates, including expanded diagnostic criteria and greater social acceptance of mental health issues. Other nations may see similar increases in diagnosed cases if their healthcare systems and social attitudes evolve in a comparable way.
