COVID 19 and mental health

COVID 19 and mental health

The COVID 19, novel coronavirus as soon as was declared worldwide pandemic we saw a worldwide shut down in the whole world. As with all coronaviruses, COVID 19 is classified as respiratory tract infection. This means COViD-19 will cause mild to severe symptoms that affect the mouth, nose, and sinuses (the upper respiratory tract) or the windpipe and lungs (the lower respiratory tract). One of the most surprising aspects of the current COVID-19 virus is the way it spreads from person to person with exceptional ferocity at n. Although some of the affected experience extremely mild symptoms (or no symptoms at all), others need urgent and thorough medical attention. So now the question here is how will all this go away?. Well, the humans spread it and it's only the humans that can terminate it just with self-isolation and quarantine. Even if one doesn't have any symptoms of COVID 19 still they should practice self-isolation and if there are symptoms one should immediately consult a doctor. We all know the basics this we need to do like wearing masks and washing our hands properly with soap and using sanitizer having alcohol content in it. But along with this people need to take care of their mental health as well We're living in the time of pandemic so it's easier to get exposed to negative thoughts and panic attacks so I would like to share some tips from psychologists Recommendations from Psychologists.

1. Isolate yourself from news about the virus. (Everything we need to know, we already know).

2. Don't lookout for the death toll. It's not a cricket match to know the latest score. Avoid that.

3. Don't look for additional information on the Internet, it would weaken your mental state.

4. Avoid sending fatalistic messages. Some people don't have the same mental strength as you (Instead of helping, you could activate pathologies such as depression).

5. If possible, listen to music at home at a pleasant volume. Look for board games to entertain children, tell stories, and future plans.

6. Maintain discipline in the home by washing your hands, putting up a sign, or alarm for everyone in the house.

7. Your positive mood will help protect your immune system, while negative thoughts have been shown to depress your immune system and make it weak against viruses.

8. Most importantly, firmly believe that this shall also pass and we will be safe....!

 Stay positive...Stay safe. ??????
