Prevalence of dual diagnosis in SPMI clients??
Question: Does anyone know the % of dual diagnosis clients for the persistent mentally ill population in the USA?
Answers: The statistic I saw last said that about 2.6 percent of the U.S. adult population have SPMI, and anxiety disorders, mood disorders, substance abuse, and depression are the most commonly paired comorbid disorders. Also, individuals with co-occuring disorders is 15 percent.
However, in all of my searching, nowhere could I actually find a statistic of comorbidity in SPMI clients. I'm sorry I could not actually answer your question; it is a statistic that appears not to exist.
