Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a dramatic increase in depression, anxiety, psychosis, and suicidality, new research shows.
The most profound health problems were found among adults younger than 25 years. Roughly 90% screened positive for moderate to severe depression, and 80% screened positive for moderate to severe anxiety.
One of the most alarming findings was that in June, 25,498 participants who screened positive for depression reported thinking of suicide or self-harm on “more than half of days to nearly every day.” A total of 14,607 participants said they had these thoughts every day.
Sadly, not surprising.

Not surprised, and this is so sad. I’m wondering what this is going to mean in the long-term?
I am wondering the same and beginning to formulate some ideas. Nothing solid at this point but in general the overall mental health picture paints a huge negative for the long term. If the glass is half-empty for many what does this portend?
