Concept Paper
Utilizing further research and understanding
deeply the exact causes of mental illness. (MQ: Transforming Mental Health)
Introduction
These
days, depression is fairly a common illness worldwide. Globally, with an
estimated 3.8 percent of the population impacted, 5.0 percent of adults and 5.7
percent of persons over 60 years old are affected (WHO, 2021). Depression may
be a mental illness yet these also affect physical bodily symptoms. They may
have poor focus, low self-esteem, interrupted sleep, constant exhaustion, and a
loss of pleasure and interest in activities for virtually a whole day, weeks,
months, or even years during depressive episodes. Although we may know a lot
about sadness, many people are unaware of the actual causes of depression.
Despite the fact that 1 in 4 of us will be affected by these illnesses.
Millions of people throughout the world are suffering because of a lack of
research into the origins, treatment, and prevention of mental illness. More
study into mental illnesses can assist identify remedies and get a better
understanding of what causes depression
Description
Mental
illnesses have been a rampant concern in our current community. In the
Philippines, the total prevalence of depression is 3.3 percent, implying that
around 3.3 million Filipinos are depressed. However, society has overlooked and
has dramatically underfunded mental health research. That is why MQ has
surfaced. MQ: Transforming Mental Health is a non-profit organization

illnesses, to identify which young people are most at risk and developing and
ensuring that effective interventions for young people are implemented.
