What is the most common mental health diagnoses amongst americans?

I've read that anxiety and depression are widespread there. While I always advocate for mindfulness and good lifestyle for general well-being, for serious mental health issues, professional help from a therapist or doctor is truly necessary. Don't try to manage severe symptoms alone.

Hey, hearing about mental health issues can be heavy, but it's good to talk about it. Anxiety and depression seem to affect a lot of people there. Just remember, it's okay not to be okay, and seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

I guess all that processed food and high-stress life must contribute, eh? But seriously, I've heard anxiety and depression are big ones there. Maybe they need more comforting home-cooked meals and less worry about calorie counts, haha!

My doctor, who specializes in mental health, mentioned that anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder are consistently among the most common diagnoses in the US. The prevalence highlights the need for accessible mental health support and destigmatization.
