Michigan Hotline Mental Health
According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) for 2019, approximately 20% of adults in Michigan reported experiencing a mental illness in the past year. Common mental health conditions include anxiety disorders, major depressive disorder, and substance use disorders.
Suicide is a serious concern related to mental health. In 2019, Michigan had a suicide rate of 19.5 per 100,000 population, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Suicide rates can vary by age group, gender, and other factors.
Access to mental health care services can be a challenge in some areas of Michigan, especially in rural and underserved communities. The state has been working to improve access by expanding telehealth services and implementing initiatives to address workforce shortages in mental health professions.
Michigan offers various mental health resources to its residents. The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services provides information and resources on mental health services and programs. Local community mental health organizations, private therapists and counselors, and crisis hotlines are available throughout the state.
Substance use disorders are often intertwined with mental health conditions. Michigan has been addressing substance abuse issues, including opioids, through prevention, treatment, and recovery support services. Substance use can have a significant impact on mental health, and integrated approaches are being implemented to address both issues.
