Mental Health in New Mexico
New Mexico’s stunning desert aesthetic and affordable cost of living attract people from around the country, but when it comes to mental health, the state has work to do. According to the National Alliance on Mental Health, around 300,000 people in New Mexico are living with a mental illness – that’s three times the population of Santa Fe. What’s most concerning, though, is that 24% of adults and 59% of teenagers don’t get the treatment they need.
The sad reality of this is that suicide rates are high in New Mexico. Based on CDC cause of death data, the national average suicide rate in the US is 14.1 per 100,000 people. In New Mexico, the suicide rate is 25 per 100,000 people, making it one of the highest in the country.
The good news is that the state has numerous initiatives to help mental health and that suicide rates are dropping. The state as a whole saw a 9% drop between 2022 and 2023, but even more notably, the suicide rate among Native Americans in the state dropped by 43% in the same year, according to the New Mexico Department of Health’s Center for Health Protection.
