Experts Warn Lockdown Is Creating ‘Unprecedented’ Mental Health Crisis

BY TS on JANUARY 13, 2021 • ( 0 )

Don’t comply with ridiculous mandates and take the mask off, go outside and get some sun, get some vitamin D, exercise, socialize, don’t patronize any establishment that forces you to wear a mask. I don’t. Luckily most stores by me aren’t really pushing the issue and getting in people’s faces about it. Although I had a few confrontations in 2020 when walking into two places. I didn’t wear a mask and people said something, I basically told them to fuck off. I’m the same way in person folks, I’m very direct. Sometimes you have to be, you can’t just roll over.

I understand if your employer is forcing you to wear one and you need to make money or you need to wear one at the doctor’s office or to walk into the veterinarian’s office to have your pet looked at. Outside of those things, take it off…~TS

“It’s no understatement to say that the nation is facing a mental health pandemic”

Experts in the fields of health, academia and charity have warned that the lockdown in the UK is creating a runaway pandemic of anxiety and depression.

Paul Farmer, chief executive of the mental health charity Mind said “It’s no understatement to say that the nation is facing a mental health pandemic.”

The charity has seen a massive increase in visits to its website, with unprecedented volumes of calls to helplines that deal with issues ranging from self harm to suicide.

“It’s clear that our mental health is deteriorating across the board – from mild mental health problems right through to those reaching crisis point and even having to be hospitalised,” Farmer further commented.

Dr Adrian James, president of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, further warned “We’re in an unprecedented mental health crisis. Social isolation, loneliness, stress and anxiety, domestic abuse, bereavement, financial difficulties, unemployment and severe Covid-19 infection are all factors that have led to an increase in workload for mental health services.”

“Patients are experiencing more severe symptoms, and psychiatrists are seeing an increase in both emergency and urgent presentations compared to last year,” James noted.

Emma Thomas, CEO of YoungMinds, a parents helpline, said “The pandemic is deepening the crisis in young people’s mental health and there is a growing body of evidence suggesting that the impact could be significant and long-term.”

“Young people tell us that they’ve struggled to cope with the changes and loss of coping mechanisms brought on by the pandemic, with many experiencing social isolation, anxiety, and fears around their future,” Thomas noted.

University of Nottingham Professor Ellen Townsend, who has conducted extensive research into self-harm noted “We know that suicide ideation increased in young people in the first UK lockdown. There was a worrying signal that suicides in young people increased during the first lockdown.”https://www.youtube.com/embed/Rw1dNtDEA00?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en-US&autohide=2&wmode=transparent
