NOTE: Estimates shown are percentages with standard errors included in parentheses.
NOTE: Respondents with unknown mental health service information were excluded.
NOTE: Estimates in the 2020 column are italicized to indicate caution should be used when comparing estimates between 2020 and prior years because of methodological changes for 2020. Due to these changes, significance
testing between 2020 and prior years was not performed. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Estimates in this table for 2020 exclude a subset of respondents who did not complete the questionnaire. The analysis weights and estimates were adjusted for the reduced sample size. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug
Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Some 2008 to 2010 estimates may differ from previously published estimates due to updates (see Chapter 3 of the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions).
NOTE: Mental Health Services for adults includes inpatient treatment/counseling, outpatient treatment/counseling, or use of prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents with unknown
mental health service information were excluded. Questions on virtual services were added in Quarter 4 of 2020. Estimates in this table do not include data from these questions. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and
Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Any Mental Illness (AMI) aligns with criteria from the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a
developmental or substance use disorder. AMI estimates from 2008 to 2011 may differ from previously published estimates due to revised estimation procedures. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model
and are not direct measures of diagnostic status.
NOTE: Additional estimates may be found in the detailed tables for the 2020 NSDUH at https://www.samhsa.gov/data/. Measures and terms are defined in Appendix A of the 2020 detailed tables.
1 Respondents could indicate multiple service sources; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive.
2 Because of revisions in 2017 to the outpatient mental health service estimates, these 2010 to 2016 estimates may differ from estimates published prior to the 2017 NSDUH.

NOTE: Estimates in this table exclude a subset of respondents who did not complete the questionnaire. The analysis weights and estimates were adjusted for the reduced sample size. Therefore, some
estimates in this table could differ from corresponding estimates in other tables that did not undergo sample size adjustments. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological
Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Mental Health Services including Virtual Services for adults includes treatment/counseling for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents with unknown mental health service
including virtual service information were excluded.
NOTE: Mental Illness aligns with criteria from the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder,
other than a developmental or substance use disorder. Estimates of serious mental illness (SMI) are a subset of estimates of any mental illness (AMI) because SMI is limited to people with AMI that
resulted in serious functional impairment. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status.
NOTE: Additional estimates may be found in the detailed tables for the 2020 NSDUH at https://www.samhsa.gov/data/. Measures and terms are defined in Appendix A of the 2020 detailed tables.

NOTE: Estimates shown are percentages with standard errors included in parentheses.
NOTE: Respondents with unknown mental health service information were excluded.
NOTE: Estimates in the 2020 column are italicized to indicate caution should be used when comparing estimates between 2020 and prior years because of methodological changes for 2020. Due to these changes, significance
testing between 2020 and prior years was not performed. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Estimates in this table for 2020 exclude a subset of respondents who did not complete the questionnaire. The analysis weights and estimates were adjusted for the reduced sample size. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug
Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Some 2008 to 2010 estimates may differ from previously published estimates due to updates (see Chapter 3 of the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions).
NOTE: Mental Health Services for adults includes inpatient treatment/counseling, outpatient treatment/counseling, or use of prescription medication for problems with emotions, nerves, or mental health. Respondents with unknown
mental health service information were excluded. Questions on virtual services were added in Quarter 4 of 2020. Estimates in this table do not include data from these questions. See the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and
Health: Methodological Summary and Definitions for details.
NOTE: Serious Mental Illness (SMI) aligns with criteria from the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and is defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder, other than a
developmental or substance use disorder. Estimates of SMI are a subset of estimates of any mental illness (AMI) because SMI is limited to people with AMI that resulted in serious functional impairment. SMI estimates from
2008 to 2011 may differ from previously published estimates due to revised estimation procedures. These mental illness estimates are based on a predictive model and are not direct measures of diagnostic status.
NOTE: Additional estimates may be found in the detailed tables for the 2020 NSDUH at https://www.samhsa.gov/data/. Measures and terms are defined in Appendix A of the 2020 detailed tables.
1 Respondents could indicate multiple service sources; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive.
2 Because of revisions in 2017 to the outpatient mental health service estimates, these 2010 to 2016 estimates may differ from estimates published prior to the 2017 NSDUH.
