Depression refers to a group of mental health issues marked by a lack of positive feeling, a depressed mood, and a variety of cognitive, physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms. It's a highly prevalent ailment that affects one out of every five Americans. Depression can be caused by a variety of causes, including genetics, stress, and brain chemistry.
Depression is caused mostly by variables such as social isolation and a stressful work environment, which have contributed significantly to the rise in the number of persons suffering from depression. According to the World Health Organization, depression afflicted almost 350 million people globally in 2016. Antidepressants aid in the treatment of depression by maintaining the balance of different hormones and chemicals in the brain.
Given the challenges experienced during the crisis, such as social isolation due to lockdown, employment uncertainty, and fear of getting infected by coronavirus, the pandemic is expected to have a long- and short-term influence on the individual's mental disorder. According to a survey conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation in August 2020, 64 per cent of households with a healthcare worker reported having experienced at least one negative effect on their mental health and wellbeing during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as difficulty sleeping or eating, increased alcohol consumption or substance use, and worsening chronic conditions.
