From Ocean fm in Donegal, Ireland:
Mental illness problem greatest in rural areas
Certain rural parts of Donegal have higher levels of people suffering from mental illness than the larger urban centres according to a local councillor. Fine Gael Clr. Terence Slowey said the entire issue of mental health has been the "Cinderella" area of the health service which suffers from a lack of investment.
He said that up to 10% of the population encounter psychiatric problems with 75% of people taking part in a recent survey knowing somebody who suffers from a mental health problem.
