Mental illness is more common than you might imagine. Each year millions of people suffer from some type of mental illness. Some mental illness are milder than some and can be treated with medication. One fifth of Americans suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder during any given year. Children as well as adults can be affected by this health problem. Unfortunately, others are not that treatable. The exact causes of mental disorders are unknown at this moment.

There are various types of mental illnesses. Here are some of the most common ones: Panic Disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, phobias, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder, generalized anxiety disorder and acute stress disorder. It is important that anyone who believe that they have a mental illness, see a specialist as soon as possible.
