please explain your thinking as to why this is.Which percentage of Americans USA people would you say are ';mentally ill';?? and how compared to UK?
According to the book They F*** you up, by Oliver James, 1 in 4 British suffer form a mental disorder. I guess overall, the US has a higher percentage if we average it out in terms of population.





Why? Stress, unrealistic goals, temptation, self-hate (not to be too pc), expectations that do not go to plan, wanting too much and the way the world is changing........Which percentage of Americans USA people would you say are ';mentally ill';?? and how compared to UK?
1 in 5 americans have a mental disorder I dont know the statistics in the uk though.
