My thoughts about mental illnesses in Chile
I am a very healthy person but I am also very aware of the situations
happening in my country in the cases of diseases that affect our people.
In our country exists many mental illnesses that hurt and destroy people
lives like Alzheimer, crippling depression and bipolar disorder, many of that
diseases are covered by the GES (explicit guarantees in health) program which is a tool of the State
to aid those people that suffer from them. But there is a big quantity of
illnesses that are not considered as such by this program like Alzheimer which
is a case where the mind starts to degenerate causing the person mind to go
blank and have mental lagoons, I am very worried about this situation because
there are people that can´t afford the money to pay for their treatment and the
government ignores them!
I would really like to change this, so no one has to go through this problems
without the help that they could need because this kind of illnesses are very unexpected and can happen to
anyone.

In Chile there is a problem with mental ilness and it seems that the government does not care about it.
ResponderBorrarThere should be more statistics on mental illness ... the characterization can help in the creation of public measures
ResponderBorrarI think that more studies should be conducted on the poblation. With that , people would have a better chance to threat themselves before something worse might happen.
ResponderBorrarIt's really sad how people doesn't respect mental illness in our country. We need more education in this topic
