A report says that psychiatric disorders are becoming quite common among the US adults, but most of the adults do not seek any treatment.
In their study, the US researchers studied the data from those 5,000 respondents that participated in the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions and aged 19-25 years. Among them 2188 were college students while the rest of them were not in college.
The researchers found that 45.8 % college students and 47.7% of other adults met the criteria for having a psychiatric disorder, but those who were found with these disorders only 25% among them looked for treatment for a period of one-year.
