Popis: On a global scale, psychiatric disorders are among the most common of medical morbidity. Most psychiatric disorders have their onset in childhood and adolescence when prevention and early intervention can prevent a lifetime of suffering, disability, and stigma. Thus, we share in a global responsibility to transcend cultural and political boundaries to identify childhood-onset psychiatric illness as an international public health crisis that demands the attention and efforts of physicians and other clinicians, families, stakeholders, and policy makers around the world.
