Treatments
Experimental: Health dialogue
Patients \> 18 years old seeking primary care for mental illness (depression, anxiety, sleep disorders or stress related problems) will be followed at 12 and 24 months from baseline in a first assessment, and after 5 and 10 years with follow-up in national registers in a later phase. The patient will fill out a web-based questionnaire about lifestyle habits before the visit to the health center and will be called for blood sampling and measurement of blood pressure and BMI. A nurse with special training in the Health Dialogue then meets the patient and provides individually tailored advice based on the patient's unique conditions and the risk profile on the Health Dialogue, such as help with smoking cessation, physical activity on prescription (PaR-S), contact with a dietitian, physiotherapist. A continued contact with a psychologist or physician will be planned if necessary
