Market Growth Factors
Increased use of digital devices and screen time is thought to be one of the main causes of the increase in mental health disorders among young people in Europe, and to be one of the factors contributing to demand for mental health treatment. The increasing omnipresence of the digital world, the consequences of overexposure to screens and technology on stress, anxiety, and depression, and the accompanying pressure for academic and professional success have collectively contributed to the growing demand for mental health care services.
Growing educational and workplace stress is another driving factor for the market growth in Europe. The education system is highly competitive in Europe, students are forced to work for extended hours, and the economy is stagnant, causing stress and anxiety. Rising living costs and housing inflation in some cities, without a corresponding supply of low-income and affordable housing, mean that there are increasing financial inequalities, and stress related to money. Further stressors may be psychological, and stem from academic, professional, or financial requirements. This may affect many mental health needs.
Another factor contributing to growth is the rising number of individuals suffering from mental disorders as a result of the active migrant and refugee crisis; a sub-group of the population that requires specialized mental care services. Furthermore, the demand for emergency mental health services, counseling, home-based care, and other services is positively influenced by the mental health issues and severity of mental health issues in migrants and refugees. In addition, environmental factors such as eco-anxiety, as well as the growing prevalence of alcohol and drug use, as well as the subsequent demand for addiction treatment, influence the market.
