People who are mentally ill would have more difficulty maintaining a good job, a home, and supportive social relationships, so they are at risk of moving down the social class structure. The lower class also have less opportunity to pursue quality treatment from a family physician who would understand the individual's personal situation and physical health better than a public health official or emergency room physician.
