MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS Through the courtesy of Family Health Service and Mental Health Clinic Future Shock 2000 A.D. is less than 30 years away--marking the turn of the second millenium. Look ing ahead into our third thou sand years, therefore, is occu pying a considerable amount of scientific attention. There is a major group, the Commission on the Year 2000, and many others, studying the matter. Ingenious speculations and prognostications are being made. No doubt, many or most of these will fall by the wayside. Ndnetheless, it isn't a bad idea to look ahead, see what may be coming, and try to develop methods of handling the changes we face now and will face, both in the far-off future and in the more immediate to morrows. Some authorities feel that studying the future and finding ways to handle change is, in deed, a crucial and critical necessity. They say that we are already in the grip of "future shock". It is called the disease of change. "This wild growth, this cancer in history," Alvin Toff- ler, author of "Futu^Shock", calls it, seeing 41 as "a real sickness from which increasing ly large numbers already suf fer." Whether the more things change, they stay the same, as the old saying goes, or whether change is now so fast and rampant that it's producing a strange, if not brave, new world, it is worth serious at tention--and is getting it. More than 100 college cam puses are offering courses in future shock, or something re lated to it. There is a mass of articles, books, and educa tional and entertainment pro grams devoted to the future, change, or relevant subjects-- including evaluations of what is thought to be coming and methods of coping. As to mental illness, one prediction suggests that by the twenty-first century periodic psychiatric examinations will be compulsory and that the av erage normal adult will see his psychiatrist more often than his dentist. Whether or not thi? comes true specifically, we can expect confidently that there will be revolutionary progress bcth in reducing mental illness and in promoting mental health and well being. The nature and rate of our present effort in research and the application of knowl edge substantiate and justify this prediction. Generation Gap U.S.A. "Haven't you heard of Men's Lib?'
