The description of the current situation of mental health development in China is wrong.

The description of the current situation of mental health development in China is wrong: the government does not attach importance to it.

Mental health, corresponding to physical health, refers to a stable psychological state in which the individual's internal psychological process is in harmony and well adapted to the external environment, including five dimensions: emotional experience, self-cognition, interpersonal communication, cognitive efficacy and adaptability. From the perspective of medical diagnosis, when the psychological state is abnormal and pathological symptoms appear, it is called mental disorder.

1, patient

In recent years, depressive disorder has become the second largest disease among all diseases in China, resulting in years of disability (YLD). The lifetime prevalence rate of adult depressive disorder is 6.8%. 4 1. 1% patients with depression suffered from other mental disorders, of which 29.8% suffered from anxiety, 13. 1% suffered from substance use disorder, and 7.7% suffered from impulse control disorder.

2, diagnosis and treatment resources

Compared with developed countries or high-income countries, there is also a certain gap in mental health diagnosis and treatment resources in China. The number, facilities and capital investment of psychiatric medical staff are relatively insufficient. Coupled with the influence of public cognition, social prejudice and other concepts, patients' enthusiasm and compliance are not high, resulting in only a few patients with mental illness receiving treatment.

3. Investment and financing situation

In recent ten years, domestic capital has been paying attention to the field of mental health, but the scale is small and the amount is small. At present, most enterprises that have obtained financing are concentrated in the top round. With the rise of 20 15 internet and the launch of overseas mental health track, domestic related investment has seen a small peak growth.

4. Development trend of mental health industry

Most psychological institutions in China operate offline. Due to the impact of the epidemic, many institutions have tried to move their services online, but at the same time, the epidemic has also released a lot of psychological needs. The psychological "sequela" left over from the three-year epidemic needs more psychological people as professional service providers to guide and intervene.

With the improvement of mental health awareness and income level, the public's demand for mental health services is gradually released, and the market potential is huge. The integration of mental health industry and innovative technology has also brought new development opportunities for the industry.
