RESUMEN
Contexto:
La salud mental en el Ecuador tiene sus orígenes en la concepción mágico-religiosa que direccionaba el entendimiento y tratamiento de los males del espíritu. Discusión y análisis durante la colonia, con la implementación del paradigma europeo, la asistencia de los llamados enfermos mentales se basaba en la caridad y la psiquiatría era utilizada para separar los "indeseables" del resto de la sociedad. Durante la república surgen grandes personajes que contribuyeron a la implementación de las bases de lo que posteriormente sería la salud mental y sus componentes.Conclusión:
desde la institución pública y la academia, no se ha logrado conciliar criterios; las políticas públicas son aisladas y poco sustentables con el estigma y el enfoque biologicista a cuestas. (AU)ABSTRACT

from the public institution and the academy, it has not been possible to reconcile criteria. Current public policies are isolated and unsustainable with the stigma and biologist's approach. (AU)
