Storyboard Text
- The Effects of Covid-19 on Mental Health
- Fear for your and your loved ones' health, changes in sleep and eating patterns, worsening or chronic health problems, worsening of mental health concerns, or increasing use of alcohol, cigarettes, and other drugs are all signs of stress during an infection disease outbreak.
- Elders, persons with chronic diseases, children, teenagers, those who help respond to Covid-19, health care providers, doctors, first responders, and people who already have mental health concerns may be more vulnerable to the stress of the situation.
- According to data from the National Institute of Mental Health Disorders, a division of the National Institute of Health, mental health disorders account for several of the leading causes of disability in developed market economies such as the United States, including major depression, schizophrenia, and obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD)
- Taking breaks from watching, reading, or listening to news articles, including social media, is a stress-relieving technique. Take slow breaths, stretch, and meditate to take care of your body. You can also try eating a well-balanced diet, exercising regularly, and getting plenty of rest.
- Make time to relax by participating in other things that you enjoy. Connect with others by discussing your concerns and feelings with people you trust.
