Impairment is based on the Sheehan Disability Scale role domains, which measure the impact of a disorder on a person’s life. Ratings greater than or equal to 7 on a scale of 0 to 10 in any of the role domains indicate severe impairment. 4 Respondents with unknown MDE data or unknown impairment data were excluded. 5 Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. 6 Other health insurance is defined as having Medicare, military-related health care, or any other type of health insurance.

See Chapter 3 of the 2024 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH): Methodological Summary and Definitions for details. 1 The aged 12-17 column includes respondents with unknown MDE data and respondents with unknown MDE with severe impairment data. 2 Major depressive episode aligns with DSM-5 criteria, 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. 3 Respondents with unknown past year major depressive episode (MDE) data were excluded. 4 Major depressive episode (MDE) with severe impairment is a subset of MDE. Impairment is based on the Sheehan Disability Scale role domains, which measure the impact of a disorder on a person’s life. Ratings greater than or equal to 7 on a scale of 0 to 10 in any of the role domains indicate severe impairment. 5 Respondents with unknown MDE data or unknown impairment data were excluded. 6 Respondents could indicate multiple types of health insurance; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. 7 Other health insurance is defined as having Medicare, military-related health care, or any other type of health insurance.

NOTE: Changes were made to the inpatient and outpatient mental health treatment questions in 2024. See Chapter 3 of the 2024 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH): Methodological Summary and Definitions for details. NOTE: Mental health treatment includes treatment for mental health, emotions, or behavior through inpatient treatment/counseling; outpatient treatment/counseling; use of prescription medication; telehealth treatment; or treatment received in a prison, jail, or juvenile detention center. NOTE: Respondents could indicate multiple reasons for not receiving mental health treatment; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. Respondents with unknown reason for not receiving treatment data were excluded. NOTE: Major depressive episode aligns with DSM-5 criteria, 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: Major depressive episode (MDE) with severe impairment is a subset of MDE. Impairment is based on the Sheehan Disability Scale role domains, which measure the impact of a disorder on a person’s life. Ratings greater than or equal to 7 on a scale of 0 to 10 in any of the role domains indicate severe impairment. NOTE: Respondents with unknown MDE data or unknown impairment data were excluded. NOTE: Respondents were classified as having a perceived unmet need for mental health treatment (MH Tx) if they did not receive MH Tx in the past year and sought or thought they should get treatment. Respondents with unknown information for perceptions of need for MH Tx were excluded. Definitions: Measures and terms are defined in Appendix A.

NOTE: Domains forced to match their respective U.S. Census Bureau or American Community Survey population estimates through the weight calibration process are not subject to sampling error induced by the NSDUH design. Therefore, the standard errors of the estimated numbers of people in these domains are zero. See the 2024 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH): Methodological Summary and Definitions for details. 1 The aged 12-17 column includes respondents with unknown MDE data and respondents with unknown MDE with severe impairment data. 2 Major depressive episode aligns with DSM-5 criteria, 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. 3 Respondents with unknown past year major depressive episode (MDE) data were excluded. 4 Major depressive episode (MDE) with severe impairment is a subset of MDE. Impairment is based on the Sheehan Disability Scale role domains, which measure the impact of a disorder on a person’s life. Ratings greater than or equal to 7 on a scale of 0 to 10 in any of the role domains indicate severe impairment. 5 Respondents with unknown MDE data or unknown impairment data were excluded. 6 Some 2023 estimates may differ from previously published estimates due to updates in how opioids are defined beginning in 2024.
