“…They are characterized by non-psychotic disorders that entail personal, family and professional losses of the individuals affected [2]. In an ample English study on the prevalence of mental disorders, one in every six adults presented common mental disorders (17%), affecting in a differentiated way, men (12%) and women (20%) [3]. In Brazil, ample population studies identified a CMD prevalence in the adult population, with estimates varying between 29.9% and 36.0%, presenting a higher frequency among women and people with lower education level.…”

Association studies between social capital and health point out that a high level of social capital can act as a protector for mental health. The growing interest in social risk factors for mental health coincides with the development of social capital research. Higher levels of social capital available through social networks can act as a protector for mental health. This study investigates gender differences in the association between social capital and common mental disorders (CMD) and depression. We analyzed 15,052 participants in the baseline of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil). CMD and depression were assessed by Clinical Interview Schedule-Revised (CIS-R) and social capital by the Resource Generator scale. We used Logistic regression models stratified by sex. Women with lower social capital in the social support dimension had a greater chance of presenting CMD (OR = 1.36; CI 95%: 1.16–1.60) and depression (OR = 2.07; CI 95%: 1.57–2.72) when compared to women with higher social capital. No association was identified among men, or among women in the “prestige and education” dimension. The differences found between the dimensions of social capital support its multidimensionality, as well as the differences found between sexes, confirm the need to approach gender in its association with mental health.

“…Another advantage to these types of schemes is their accessibility. The Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (McManus et al, 2016) reported a link between common mental health disorders (such as depression) and socio-economic adversity. Those who reported receiving the Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), a benefit aimed at those unable to work due to poor health or disability, were more likely to be experiencing a co-morbid mental health disorder, with nearly half reporting a suicide attempt.…”

“…In 2014, only around half of those experiencing symptoms of depression in the UK were receiving treatment, with those with more severe symptomology more likely to be receiving treatment (McManus et al, 2016).

“…The Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (McManus et al, 2016) noted co-morbidity between many mental health disorders, including depression, and lower verbal IQ. Those with lower scores on The National Adult Reading Test (Nelson and Wilson, 1991) were more likely to report experiencing a mental health disorder such as depression.…”

“…Depression is an extremely common mental health disorder. The Adult Psychiatric Morbidity survey (McManus et al, 2016) estimates that the 12-month prevalence rate in the UK is around 2.9%. Increases from 2007 (2.6%) (McManus et al, 2009) and 1993 (1.8%) (Meltzer et al, 1995) have been noted.…”

Background: Depression is an extremely common mental health disorder, with prevalence rates rising. Low-intensity interventions are frequently used to help meet the demand for treatment. Bibliotherapy, for example, is often prescribed via books on prescription schemes (for example 'Reading Well' in England) to those with mild-to-moderate symptomology. Bibliotherapy can effectively reduce symptoms of depression (Naylor et al., 2010). However, the majority of Results:Results suggest that both groups experienced a reduction in depression and an increase in well-being, with no differences noted between the two books.Conclusions: Future directions are discussed in terms of dissemination, to those with mild to moderate symptoms of depression, via books on prescription schemes.

Key Points Question Is the prevalence of depression in pregnancy increasing across 2 generations of the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children? Findings In this 2-generation cohort study, evidence was found showing that depression in young pregnant women is higher today than in the 1990s. Meaning The findings highlight the need for increased support for young pregnant women to minimize the potentially far-reaching effects of depression on mothers, their children, and future generations.
