Journals and periodicals: 82-003-X202600100001
Description: The prevalence of mood and anxiety disorders has risen in Canada over the past decade, and a large proportion of affected individuals do not receive professional help. This study used data from the 2022 Mental Health and Access to Care Survey to understand how sociodemographic factors, including age, gender, immigrant status, population group, and household income, were associated with mental health care service use (talked to a health professional about their mental health; and/or received counselling or therapy services in the 12 months before completing the survey) among people who met the criteria for selected mood or anxiety disorders.
