mental illnesss on the rise in cambodia

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

Could be true
if there were 5 reported cases of mental illness,( for whatever reason) it would be true as before, i doubt that any were reported

I think that many suffer from the war. After my mum died my sister suggested that she had been suffering since the blitz in London, she was probably right. And younger people in Cambodia with limited prospects and grinding poverty must suffer from mental illness.

So what?

I have been here since 2007 and I can't say I have seen an increase at all.

So this is just your opinion and not an actual fact.....

I assumed mental illness was on the rise the world over.

I feel a bit crazier day by day. Is it just me?
