A major global health concern that affects millions of individuals globally is mental illness. Recent estimates place the number of people with mental or behavioral disorders at 450 million worldwide, making up over 12% of all diseases (Friedrich, 2017). These issues include substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression, and concern disorders, among many other conditions. It is projected that 322 million people worldwide, or 4.4% of the total population, suffer from depression alone.
