abstract: 'This European Psychiatric Association (EPA) guidance paper is a result

  of the Working Group on Mental Health Consequences of Economic Crises of

  the EPA Council of National Psychiatric Associations. Its purpose is to

  identify the impact on mental health in Europe of the economic downturn

  and the measures that may be taken to respond to it. We performed a

  review of the existing literature that yields 350 articles on which our

  conclusions and recommendations are based. Evidence-based tables and

  recommendations were developed through an expert consensus process.

  Literature dealing with the consequences of economic turmoil on the

  health and health behaviours of the population is heterogeneous, and the

  results are not completely unequivocal. However, there is a broad

  consensus about the deleterious consequences of economic crises on

  mental health, particularly on psychological well-being, depression,

  anxiety disorders, insomnia, alcohol abuse, and suicidal behaviour.

  Unemployment, indebtedness, precarious working conditions, inequalities,

  lack of social connectedness, and housing instability emerge as main

  risk factors. Men at working age could be particularly at risk, together

  with previous low SES or stigmatized populations. Generalized austerity

  measures and poor developed welfare systems trend to increase the

  harmful effects of economic crises on mental health. Although many

  articles suggest limitations of existing research and provide

  suggestions for future research, there is relatively little discussion

  of policy approaches to address the negative impact of economic crises

  on mental health. The few studies that addressed policy questions

  suggested that the development of social protection programs such as

  active labour programs, social support systems, protection for housing

  instability, and better access to mental health care, particularly at

  primary care level, is strongly needed.'
