NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
3 Illicit Drugs include marijuana/hashish, cocaine (including crack), heroin, hallucinogens, inhalants, or prescription-type psychotherapeutics used nonmedically. Illicit Drugs Other Than Marijuana include cocaine (including crack), heroin, hallucinogens, inhalants, or prescription-type psychotherapeutics used nonmedically. The estimates for Nonmedical Use of Psychotherapeutics, Stimulants, and Methamphetamine incorporated in these summary estimates do not include data from the methamphetamine items added in 2005 and 2006. See Section B.4.8 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: National Findings.
4 Nonmedical use of prescription-type psychotherapeutics includes the nonmedical use of pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, or sedatives and does not include over-the-counter drugs.
5 Estimates of Nonmedical Use of Psychotherapeutics, Stimulants, and Methamphetamine in the designated rows include data from methamphetamine items added in 2005 and 2006 and are not comparable with estimates presented in NSDUH reports prior to the 2007 National Findings report. See Section B.4.8 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: National Findings.

NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
3 Illicit Drugs include marijuana/hashish, cocaine (including crack), heroin, hallucinogens, inhalants, or prescription-type psychotherapeutics used nonmedically. Illicit Drugs Other Than Marijuana include cocaine (including crack), heroin, hallucinogens, inhalants, or prescription-type psychotherapeutics used nonmedically. The estimates for Nonmedical Use of Psychotherapeutics, Stimulants, and Methamphetamine incorporated in these summary estimates do not include data from the methamphetamine items added in 2005 and 2006. See Section B.4.8 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: National Findings.
4 Nonmedical use of prescription-type psychotherapeutics includes the nonmedical use of pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, or sedatives and does not include over-the-counter drugs.
5 Estimates of Nonmedical Use of Psychotherapeutics, Stimulants, and Methamphetamine in the designated rows include data from methamphetamine items added in 2005 and 2006 and are not comparable with estimates presented in NSDUH reports prior to the 2007 National Findings report. See Section B.4.8 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: National Findings.

NOTE: Dependence or abuse is based on definitions found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV).
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample.

NOTE: Mental Health Treatment/Counseling is defined as having received inpatient care or outpatient care or having used prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents were not to include treatment for drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown treatment/counseling information were excluded. Estimates were based only on responses to items in the Adult Mental Health Service Utilization module.
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
3 Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive.
4 CHIP is the Children's Health Insurance Program. Individuals aged 19 or younger are eligible for this plan.
5 Other Health Insurance is defined as having Medicare, CHAMPUS, TRICARE, CHAMPVA, the VA, military health care, or any other type of health insurance.
6 The Other Employment category includes retired persons, disabled persons, homemakers, students, or other persons not in the labor force.

NOTE: Mental Health Treatment/Counseling is defined as having received inpatient care or outpatient care or having used prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents were not to include treatment for drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown treatment/counseling information were excluded. Estimates were based only on responses to items in the Adult Mental Health Service Utilization module.
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
3 Government Assistance is defined as one or more household family members having received Supplemental Security Income (SSI), cash assistance (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, TANF), noncash assistance, or food stamps.

NOTE: Inpatient Mental Health Treatment/Counseling is defined as having received inpatient care for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents were not to include treatment for drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown treatment/counseling information were excluded. Estimates were based only on responses to items in the Adult Mental Health Service Utilization module.
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
3 Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive.
4 CHIP is the Children's Health Insurance Program. Individuals aged 19 or younger are eligible for this plan.
5 Other Health Insurance is defined as having Medicare, CHAMPUS, TRICARE, CHAMPVA, the VA, military health care, or any other type of health insurance.
6 The Other Employment category includes retired persons, disabled persons, homemakers, students, or other persons not in the labor force.

NOTE: Prescription Medication Mental Health Treatment/Counseling is defined as having used prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents were not to include treatment for drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown treatment/counseling information were excluded. Estimates were based only on responses to items in the Adult Mental Health Service Utilization module.
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
3 Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive.
4 CHIP is the Children's Health Insurance Program. Individuals aged 19 or younger are eligible for this plan.
5 Other Health Insurance is defined as having Medicare, CHAMPUS, TRICARE, CHAMPVA, the VA, military health care, or any other type of health insurance.
6 The Other Employment category includes retired persons, disabled persons, homemakers, students, or other persons not in the labor force.

NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Mental Health Treatment/Counseling is defined as having received inpatient care or outpatient care or having used prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents were not to include treatment for drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown treatment/counseling or combination of types of treatments information were excluded. Estimates were based only on responses to items in the Adult Mental Health Service Utilization module.
2 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
3 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.

NOTE: Mental Health Treatment/Counseling is defined as having received inpatient care or outpatient care or having used prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents were not to include treatment for drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown treatment/counseling information were excluded. Estimates were based only on responses to items in the Adult Mental Health Service Utilization module.
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Respondents could indicate multiple service sources; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive.
2 Estimates in the 2008 Total column represent persons aged 18 or older, including those with unknown past year mental illness information.
3 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
4 Respondents were permitted to specify other locations for receiving outpatient mental health treatment/counseling. This location was the most commonly reported other location for receiving outpatient treatment/counseling.
5 Respondents with unknown or invalid responses to the other-specify question on Some Other Place Received Outpatient Mental Health Treatment/Counseling were excluded.

NOTE: Estimates in this table are based only on responses to suicide and mental illness items in the Mental Health module. Respondents with unknown suicide information were excluded.
NOTE: Dependence or abuse is based on definitions found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV).
NOTE: Mental Illness is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a substance use disorder, that met the criteria found in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). Three categories of mental illness severity are defined based on the level of functional impairment: mild mental illness, moderate mental illness, and serious mental illness. Any mental illness includes persons in any of the three categories. For details on the methodology, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
1 Illicit Drugs include marijuana/hashish, cocaine (including crack), heroin, hallucinogens, inhalants, or prescription-type psychotherapeutics used nonmedically, based on data from original questions not including methamphetamine items added in 2005 and 2006.
2 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Any Mental Illness, Moderate Mental Illness, Mild Mental Illness, and No Mental Illness for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009, as well as 2008 estimates for Serious Mental Illness, are based on the full sample.

*Low precision; no estimate reported.
NOTE: Major Depressive Episode (MDE) is defined as in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), which specifies a period of at least 2 weeks when a person experienced a depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure in daily activities and had a majority of specified depression symptoms.
NOTE: Impairment is based on the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) role domains, which measure the impact of a disorder on a person's life. Impairment is defined as the highest severity level of role impairment across four domains: (1) chores at home, (2) school or work, (3) close relationships with family, and (4) social life. Ratings ≥ 7 on a 0 to 10 scale were considered Severe Impairment.
NOTE: Respondents with unknown past year MDE data were excluded.
1 In 2008, a split-sample design assigned adults aged 18 or older randomly to one of two impairment scales, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) or the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). For comparability purposes, estimates for Major Depressive Episode for 2008 are based only on the WHODAS half-sample. All estimates for 2009 are based on the full sample. For details, see Section B.4.3 in Appendix B of the Results from the 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Mental Health Findings.
2 Respondents with unknown Severe Impairment data were excluded.
3 Treatment is defined as seeing or talking to a medical doctor or other professional or using prescription medication for depression in the past year. Respondents with unknown treatment data were excluded.
