Utah Leads The Nation (Again) In Mental Illness

[I Have Questions]

Opioid addiction, plastic surgery addiction, and a mental health crisis. The stone is truly rolling fifth, all is well in Zion. It’s just the altitude, right?

Interesting statistics. It suggests that roughly 1/3 of Mopologists are “afflicted.”

Does this graph show that the overall depression/mental illness trends are going up nation wide while Utah is dropping? There seems to be a cross over in the middle of 2023.

Maybe Doctor Steuss can tell us if Utah is on a positive downward trend in the reporting of mental illness/depression while the United States composite score is moving upward.

Earlier I posted some information that seems to be telling us that Utah might be on the forefront of making efforts to alleviate the problem of mental illness.

This site has some good information to add to the knowledge base of discussion.

Your positive trend in Utah correlates with the diminishing ratio of active Mormons to non+non active Mormons. As Utah becomes less Mormon, mental health improves…well spotted MG’ly. What to make of that…
