Answer 1

People (including those who are professionals in the field of mental health) need to first consider whether too many people are being diagnosed with disorders when - really - they may either just be unhappy or else have emotional problems that could mimick certain mental health conditions. In other words, people are being over-diagnosed at least to some degree these days.

Also, a whole lot of mental health conditions are related to people using alcohol and/or drugs.

I've always thought there should be some simple book handed out to new mothers about some of the most basic ways of making a baby feel secure and talking to children; because when children get the right, solid, nurturing when they're little (and throughout their childhoods) they are often more able to deal with some things that may cause someone not as strong to develop mental health problems.

Schools need to gain a better understanding of two things: 1) How to create an optimum environment in the group setting in order to improve the "overall picture" when it comes to how hundreds of individuals feel during the school day and 2) How not to overestimate children's/teen's emotional maturity and how not to underestimate their intellectual maturity and needs. There are ways some things could be restructured or otherwise changed so that all kids felt more a part of the school and fewer kids would have any tendency they have to be different made worse by how the school does things.

Courts need to stop running roughshod over people who go there to get a divorce. There can be complete disregard for one party or another, and there can be complete disregard for whether both parents are able to work and be financial and emotional support for the children. As a result, one or both parents may be so grief-stricken and stressed out at watching their children suffer the parents may get depression or anxiety or even resort to substance abuse in some cases. The children can suffer from depression because their parents have been prevented from remaining solid and properly supportive (financially, but sometimes emotionally as well).

People need to understand how stress in one's life (particularly long-term and/or extreme stress) leads to elevated cortisol levels, which can lead to inability to concentrate and/or feeling exhausted. If there were more awareness of this there may be a better effort to solving what causes the stress rather than treating a person's "unhappiness" or inability to concentrate as if it is depression.

State agencies administering assistance programs need to be aware of the above as well, and need to put less emphasis on assuming that people with money problems MUST need job training. If state programs were more aimed at getting a person's situation improved to the point where there was less destructive stress people would be more able to find work (and training if necessary) for themselves. State programs often miss the root of the problem and focus instead on either making sure people have food (reasonable enough) or have job training available.

I would like to see the Federal Government put out some guidelines (not rules or policies, just well-founded, sound, guidelines) about what is healthy in a family environment and what isn't. These guidelines could be made available to anyone dealing with families, schools, children, etc.; and should emphasize what is emotional nurturing and what is destructive in families.

Companies that employ people in non-prestigious jobs (particularly non-prestigious jobs in particular) need to establish a policy of treating these people with more respect (rather than as if they're "nothing"), but they also need to expect more in terms of a higher quality performance. In other words, this type of work needs to be seen as being valued, respected, but also its own type of "professional". The work needs to be valued but the workers also need to be valued. As it is, neither the work nor the workers is valued in many cases.

The mental health profession should, perhaps, divide into two categories - people dealing with mental illness and people dealing with helping non-mentally-ill people going through "life situations", which would include things as normal as an ok life with too much destructive stress.

It also seems to me that the mental health profession and other professions need to have a greater awareness of the "ok-ness" of most people and focus on things in that person's life that may be contributing to a condition that may look like mental health problems rather than just put a band-aid on things by suggesting anti-depressants when the person's "depression" would be eliminated if the root of the problem were addressed.

Mental health professionals went into the field (often) because they wanted to help people with mental health problems. They spent time and money getting training about mental health conditions. There is the chance that some mental health professionals may have a sublte emotional investment in believing there is illness or something wrong with a client rather than focusing on what is wrong around the client.

There should be some kind of campaign to educate people about the fact that listening to too much depressing/violent music or watching too much depressing/violent/otherwise non-redeeming-value movies/television is not nurturing to people's souls and may contribute to an overall negative image of the world.

I don't know whether there is anything promising "out there", but the above is what I sincerely believe is needed on a national level in order to reduce the overwhelming numbers of people with mental health issues.
