AB  - Severe  mental  illness  (SMI)  is  defined  as  “a  mental,  behavior,  or  emotional  disorder”  diagnosable  according  to  the  Diagnostic  and  Statistical  Manual  (DSM)  that  results  in  significant  functional  impairment.2,3  A  traditional  focus  for  public  mental  health  systems  has  been  to  treat  SMI,  which  account  for  a  disproportionate  amount  of  disability  among  all  mental  disorders.1  However,  public  health  approaches  to  treat  mental  illness  have  gradually  shifted  toward  progressively  earlier  identification  and  treatment  strategies,  including  preventive  strategies.  Most  of  these  efforts  have  been  on  SMIs  such  as  bipolar  disorder  and  psychotic  disorders  (including  schizophrenia);  accordingly,  this  review  focuses  on  these  disorders.
