Recognizing the need for addressing the mental health issues plaguing many American citizens, the Senate health committee has announced the Mental Health Reform Act of 2016.
While mental health can be described as "our emotional, psychological, and social well-being," mental illness "can affect your thinking, mood, and behavior."
Mental health problems can wreak havoc, not only with a person's life, but also with the lives of his or her near and dear ones.
Recognizing this, a bipartisan Senate committee has announced that it is working out ways to address the mental health crisis in the United States. Senate health committee members announced on March 7 that they are working on the Mental Health Reform Act of 2016.
"One in five adults in this country suffers from a mental illness, and nearly 60 percent aren't receiving the treatment they need. This bill will help address this crisis by ensuring our federal programs and policies incorporate proven, scientific approaches to improve care for patients," said Senate Health Committee Chairman Alexander (R-Tenn.).
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, in the year 2014 "there were an estimated 43.6 million adults aged 18 or older in the United States with AMI in the past year. This number represented 18.1% of all U.S. adults."

RE: “This wont be about addressing the lack of care facilities, itll be about detecting undiagnosed illness through all kinds of government overreach into family healthcare and reporting from all kinds of agencies and organizations that are fundamentally unqualified to make such judgements (schools, tax offices, police, etc), as well as expanding the requirements (and the warning signs) for traditional reporting sources like the VA and CPS, and likely excluding systems like the welfare arms of Social Services to avoid stigmatization.”
So how do they address Democrat voters?
Psychology, being a ‘voodoo’ science, I’d always answer that ‘No’; I’ve never, nor a member of my family, been to see a brain surgeon (knock on wood).
IE: Depends on the definition of IS is, no? See ‘legalize’, think legalize /s
I’m really glad the Federal government started addressing this. The government has plenty of time on it’s hand now that it solved the debt crisis, drug abuse, poverty, joblessness & the breakdown in the family. /sarc
Now all they have to do is declare everyone incompetent.
DemonRats are EVIL, not stupid.

But no need to worry. Obama himself has assured us that we do not have to worry about tyranny, and that we should just Reject Voices That Warn About Government Tyranny.
So why worry?

If there is anybody qualified to address mental illness, it is the Senate. The place is full of crazy people.
Only problem with that is if you have seen anyone for anything at any time for treatment and your provider has filed with your insurance, chart notes and diagnosis will be readily available on the internet. It would behoove patients to look at the chart notes their doctor has prepared, what diagnosis codes will be used on their billing and what those diagnosis codes translate to in plain English. Coding information is readily available on the internet.

Well, there's your problem!
