Irish psychiatrists working at St. Patrick's Hospital come to an unexpected conclusion. Scientists have found that mental illnesses began to spread faster than ordinary diseases, according to Pannochka, an online publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old.. net This, in their opinion, was influenced by economic crises, increasing loneliness and rising unemployment. Under the influence of such factors, the number of people who became disabled or went crazy increased significantly..

According to experts, in Ireland alone, over the past six years, the number of registered people with mental illness has increased by 28.7%. Now there are already 123,515 such people in this rather small country..

At the same time, the age threshold for such diseases has significantly decreased.. Mental disorders in the Irish begin at the age of 25, when they have to face life's difficulties.

The consequence is that one in ten Irish people under the age of 45 have a mental disability.. Further, the figure only increases. In people over the age of 60, 20% have mental illness.

The highest rate (70%) was recorded among women in Ireland, whose age exceeded 84 years.
