    Default Further Anxiety and Depression Due to the Pandemic

    This pandemic is harder for people who are already dealing with health problems. I could only imagine how much it magnified the depression and anxiety for most. I hope everybody managed it pretty well.

    Did this pandemic lead you to further anxiety and depression?

    I am affected by this mentally, but I try to be positive as much as I can. It seems like an endless battle but that's all we can do. Fight another day.

    We have another set of lockdowns in the UK, making it to the shops can cause a little anxiety and due to the issues I tend to stay home and we order in the food. The anxiety is more now its cold and going outside is hard.

    Many other countries don't accept flights from the UK anymore. It's the third wave, and I pray that they get through it with fewer people affected.

    I just hope people will take this seriously, so the virus will be contained once and for all. I hope 2021 will be the cleaning up, then we could all go back to the way life was, maybe even better now that the pandemic has exposed our weaknesses.

    I am feeling post op depression and the pandemic and all that is happening in the USA is definitely contributing. I am feeling so much better physically as I recover from my surgery but the psychological part is tough! I have read this is common. Thankfully my husband is so supportive and it's one day at a time.

    I'm afraid this quarantine will repeat and then I don't know what I will be doing. I'm really afraid and worry about that. I hate all this situation.

    Truly, this pandemic took a toll on our mental health. It's just so hard to be dealing with anxiety every day that's why it is essential that we are surrounded by full love and support or else this will be almost an impossible battle. But hang in there, friends. This too shall pass. We have to take it one day at a time.

    I think we should avoid looking at the future as we tend to be more anxious. I say we live in the present, so that's very well said.

    Pandemic anxiety has replaced war anxiety. It's horrible.

    The pandemic had a profound effect on the morale of most people. The stress of the lockdown triggered many illnesses related to both physical and mental health. Surely each of you has felt a sense of anxiety, panic, and uncertainty about the future. Negative thoughts made people think about the bad outcome of events. There was almost no hope for a favorable outcome. In addition, many couples faced a crisis in their relationships. Excessive spending of time together caused frequent quarrels and misunderstandings. According to statistics, divorces increased by 20 percent during the pandemic. Fortunately, many couples took advantage of help with marriage. This helped them maintain and mend their relationship with their partner.

    Try taking some activated b vitamins, or consider 5hp and p5p to help your mood, Gaba is good for anxiety
