Mental Health During COVID-19

At the time of writing this, mankind is living through and fighting one of the worst crises since World War 2.

COVID-19, a coronavirus that is now on the scale of global pandemic, has upended millions of lives as well as livelihoods.

People see their jobs disappear overnight, lost their jobs as companies try to cut losses or their income cut. And they are starting to worry and stress if they can survive in the weeks or months to come. Many also struggle as they keep themselves in isolation, voluntary or not, hoping that distancing and isolation will ‘flatten the curve’ quickly.

Mental well-being has taken one of the front seats of this pandemic. And this is the time we need to come together to provide the support we can to those around us and the world. The Internet has become the most effective partner and conduit of people staying in touch and reaching out to each other. And I hope to do my small part in starting this site to focus mental health.

I hope to share soon the various resources we can tap into as we ride through this big coronavirus wave.

Take care and stay safe.
