The information is not collected in the format requested.

NHS Digital’s Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (2014), published in September 2016, provides a national percentage of people in selected age groups assessed as having a specified mental disorder but does not specify long term mental health conditions as a disorder or set of disorders.
