Pandemic has increased loneliness in people
Will the loneliness of the Corona era spoil us or embellish us?
On the occasion of the sixth International Yoga Day, the President of the United Nations General Assembly said that Covid-19 (Corona) has disrupted life, increased loneliness, and caused anxiety. Corona affected everyone’s lives. Millions of people lost their lives, people became unemployed, victims of depression. People had to face a lot of problems. During the Corona period, there was a large increase in the number of suicides in Japan.

What is loneliness?
Loneliness is a kind of feeling. During this time the person feels unhappy. They stay alone rather than in a group. They do not feel like doing anything, most of the time they have feelings of irritability and anger.
Loneliness impacted mental health
The corona epidemic has not only affected people’s bodies but also their minds. Adherence to continuous lockdown or corona prevention measures, fear of infection, and tragic information received day and night due to the epidemic are making many people a victim of mental stress. Several reports suggest that the number of psychologists seeking help during the epidemic has also increased rapidly. The uncertainty of worldwide lockdown has adversely affected the mental health of a large number of people. Although post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is often associated with war, it can also happen to people who have experienced traumatic experiences such as an accident or an epidemic. Several reports are predicting signs of PTSD in many people coming out of lockdown. Even if they are not clinically diagnosed, those people may suffer from strong emotional stress that may persist for a long time after the epidemic is over.
