. The global financial crisis is likely to cause increased mental health problems and even suicides（自杀）as people struggle to deal with poverty and unemployment, the World Health Organization warned Thursday. Hundreds of millions of people worldwide are already affected by mental problems such as depression and bipolar disorders (带狂躁的抑郁症) and the current market meltdown (崩溃) could worsen feelings of despair among people who can't stand such illnesses. The United Nations agency said the impact could be especially marked for those living in low and middle income countries where access to treatment is often limiteD. “We should not be surprised at the turbulence (动荡) and likely consequences of the current financial crisis. Now we are seeing a huge gap in taking care of people in great need,” WHO director general Margaret Chan told at a meeting of mental health experts. “It should not come as a surprise that we continue to see more stresses, suicides and mental disorders,” Chan warneD. Benedetto Saraceno, director of WHO's mental health, said mental health disorders affected one in four people at some point in their lives. Mental and neurological disorders are often chronic (慢性的) and disabling, he saiD. Nearly 1 million people commit suicide worldwide every year, a large proportion (比例) of them are young adults. Asked about the financial crisis, Saraceno said, “Poverty can be the consequence of such events, the debts, despair and sense of loss that may reach middle and lower classes. Even the poor can be affected by this crisis.” “There is a clear evidence that suicide is linked to financial disasters. I am not talking about the millionaire's jumping out of the window but about poor people,” he saiD. The global crisis could be expected to affect the “stability（稳定）of communities and families”, according to Saraceno. 67.According to the passage, the chief result of the worldwide financial crisis is that ________ .
