The Fonagy review of NHS England’s mental health, ADHD and autism services was commissioned in 2025 by Wes Streeting, then the health secretary, in response to growing concerns that spiralling waiting lists for assessment, diagnosis and care threatened the NHS’s ability to meet the demand.(福纳吉对英格兰国民保健署心理健康、多动症和自闭症服务的审查,是2025年由时任卫生大臣韦斯·斯特里廷委托进行的,起因是人们日益担忧,评估、诊断和护理的候诊名单不断膨胀,威胁到国民保健署满足需求的能力。)

Unprecedented and growing levels of distress are real
前所未有的、不断加剧的心理困扰是真实存在的
The report is categoric that mental distress has “increased substantially across the population”, is real and affects everyday functioning, and that the rise “cannot be explained by greater awareness alone”.(报告明确指出,心理困扰“在全体人口中大幅增加”,是真实存在的,并影响日常功能,而且这种上升“不能仅用意识提高来解释”。) About one in four 16- to 24-year-olds are now thought to have a common mental disorder(常见精神障碍) such as anxiety and depression, up from one in six in 1993, while self-harm(自残), eating disorders, OCD(强迫症), PTSD(创伤后应激障碍) and drug dependence have also increased.
报告明确指出,心理困扰“在全体人口中大幅增加”,是真实存在的,并影响日常功能,而且这种上升“不能仅用意识提高来解释”。目前,约四分之一的16至24岁年轻人被认为患有焦虑、抑郁等常见精神障碍,而1993年这一比例为六分之一;与此同时,自残、饮食失调、强迫症、创伤后应激障碍和药物依赖也有所增加。
