Abstract
Received: December 24, 2019 Accepted: January 27, 2020 Published: January 31, 2020 Volume: 2 Issue: 1 Mental Disorders make up most of the disease proportion in young people throughout cultures. Yet, mental health needs of adolescents and children are neglected, and especially those belonging to lower and middle socioeconomic status families. Most mental disorders are diagnosed later in life but the onset is often in youth itself. In this paper, we aim to discuss such disorders with risk and protective factors associated with them, along with a focus on early detection and treatment-basedinterventions. Wealso found a special need for public health systems to build in capacity, relating to the promotion and prevention of such disorders in the youth. This as we discuss, can be done by making available lowcost and universally found resources to children and adolescents while also empowering them in the process. We conclude that action is imperative to reduce the burden of mental health problems which is a looming threat to our future generations so that we can allow for holistic development of children worldwide.
