When did the World Health Organization start recognizing mental illness?

  • Hi :) I'm writing a research paper on mental illness historically. Does anyone know when the World Health Organization began recognizing mental illness as a legitimate medical concern/ when the WHO began including mental disorders in their list of recognized medical conditions? I'd be grateful for some answers or even just related information. I'll be even more grateful if you can back up your answer with a source (url, etc.) Thanks in advance!

  • Answer:

    The WHO was created in 1948, by which time mental illness was well recognized, so it stands to reason that the WHO has recognized mental illness since the moment it was founded.
