Mental Health Month
This year, the focus is on understanding bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, two mental illnesses that are sometimes difficult to diagnose because of their shared traits.
According to Abdurahmaan Kenny, mental health portfolio manager at Pharma Dynamics, 3-4% of South Africans have bipolar disorder, and about 1% of the population will develop schizophrenia in their lifetime.
