Per my previous post this shows how the later mental health issues are left untreated the worse the problem can become. A diagram in this shows cost of initial therapy in America compared to costs for if leads to other problems such as hospitalisation and prison sentences.

Unfortunatly one factor in increase homelessness in UK is cuts to mental health budgets.
