See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details. NOTE: Substance use disorder (SUD) estimates in 2020 are based on criteria from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5). SUD and related estimates are not comparable between 2020 and prior years of NSDUH, because prior years’ estimates were based on DSM-IV criteria. The 2020 estimates reflect additional methodological changes for the 2020 NSDUH. Due to these changes, significance testing between 2020 and prior years was not performed. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details on these changes. NOTE: Serious Mental Illness (SMI) aligns with DSM-IV criteria and is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a developmental or substance use disorder. Estimates of SMI are a subset of estimates of any mental illness (AMI) because SMI is limited to people with AMI that resulted in serious functional impairment. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status. ¹ Respondents aged 18 to 22 who were living in a college dormitory were excluded. ² Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. ³ Other Health Insurance is defined as having Medicare, military-related health care, or any other type of health insurance.

Estimates of serious mental illness (SMI) are a subset of estimates of any mental illness (AMI) because SMI is limited to people with AMI that resulted in serious functional impairment. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status. ¹ Respondents with no mental illness may still have received mental health treatment for a past disorder that is in partial or full remission or treatment for a disorder that was not included in the definition of mental illness or for other reasons. ² Respondents aged 18 to 22 who were living in a college dormitory were excluded. ³ Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. ⁴ Other Health Insurance is defined as having Medicare, military-related health care, or any other type of health insurance.

See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details. NOTE: Substance use disorder (SUD) estimates in 2020 are based on criteria from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5). SUD and related estimates are not comparable between 2020 and prior years of NSDUH, because prior years’ estimates were based on DSM-IV criteria. The 2020 estimates reflect additional methodological changes for the 2020 NSDUH. Due to these changes, significance testing between 2020 and prior years was not performed. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details on these changes. NOTE: Specialty facilities for substance use treatment include hospitals (inpatient only), rehabilitation facilities (inpatient or outpatient), or mental health centers. NOTE: Mental Health Services for adults includes inpatient treatment/counseling, outpatient treatment/counseling, or use of prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents with unknown mental health service information were excluded. Questions on virtual services were added in Quarter 4 of 2020. Estimates in this table do not include data from these questions. Data on virtual services are included at the end of this section.

These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status. Definitions: Measures and terms are defined in Appendix A.

See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details. NOTE: Substance use disorder (SUD) estimates in 2020 are based on criteria from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5). SUD and related estimates are not comparable between 2020 and prior years of NSDUH, because prior years’ estimates were based on DSM-IV criteria. The 2020 estimates reflect additional methodological changes for the 2020 NSDUH. Due to these changes, significance testing between 2020 and prior years was not performed. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details on these changes. NOTE: Specialty facilities for substance use treatment include hospitals (inpatient only), rehabilitation facilities (inpatient or outpatient), or mental health centers. NOTE: Mental Health Services for adults includes inpatient treatment/counseling, outpatient treatment/counseling, or use of prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents with unknown mental health service information were excluded. Questions on virtual services were added in Quarter 4 of 2020.

Estimates of SMI are a subset of estimates of any mental illness (AMI) because SMI is limited to people with AMI that resulted in serious functional impairment. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status.

Perception of unmet need was asked of all respondents regardless of their mental health. Respondents with unknown perception of unmet need information were excluded. ¹ Respondents could indicate multiple reasons for not receiving mental health services; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. ² The Total column includes respondents with unknown mental health services information. ³ Mental Health Services for adults includes inpatient treatment/counseling, outpatient treatment/counseling, or use of prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health.

Respondents who had no suicide thoughts were categorized as not making any suicide plans and not attempting suicide in the past 12 months. ⁵ Mental Illness aligns with DSM-IV criteria and is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a developmental or substance use disorder. Estimates of serious mental illness (SMI) are a subset of estimates of any mental illness (AMI) because SMI is limited to people with AMI that resulted in serious functional impairment. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status. ⁶ Respondents with unknown past year Major Depressive Episode (MDE) data were excluded. ⁷ Mental Health Services for adults includes inpatient treatment/counseling, outpatient treatment/counseling, or use of prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents with unknown mental health service information were excluded. Questions on virtual services were added in Quarter 4 of 2020. Estimates in this table do not include data from these questions. Data on virtual services are included at the end of this section.
