Rates of mental disorders
Hello
I have the problem with understanging the sentence:
"Abel said that while disparities between rates of particular conditions were well-established in research, she had not seen evidence of significant differences in the overall rates of mental health disorders across lifetimes."
Source: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2013/may/22/women-men-mental-illness-study
Does it mean that there are different rates of specific mental disorders, e.g. depression is higher in women than in men and alcochol misuse disoder is more common in men, but altogether mental disorders are equally distributed in women and men? For example, of all ill people, about 13% (irrespective of sex) have a mental disorder?
I'd be grateful for any comment on this.
