Conference focuses on early detection and access to mental-health care.

The Saudi Press Agency reported that the first Alkhobar Conference on Psychiatry and Mental Health addressed timely detection, early intervention and access to specialized care, alongside findings from the Saudi National Mental Health Survey. The survey covered 4,004 Saudi citizens aged 15–65. Among people who met criteria for a mental-health disorder in a given year, 13.7% received treatment during that same year. For those who eventually sought professional help, the median time from disorder onset to seeking it was eight years.
