The Benefits of Medication in Psychiatric Treatment

Millions of people in the U.S are affected by mental illness each year—including one in five adults and one in six children ages 6 to 17. Mental illness can have significant physical, social, and financial impacts on a person’s life, but when it comes to treatment, some people are more hesitant to consider taking a medication for mental illness.
