Addressing Collective Trauma during the Pandemic
Social distancing and variations of the lockdown order have left many feeling isolated.
Researchers have found that this feeling of loneliness was most evident in younger
people and those living alone. Many people have reported experiencing higher stress
levels, anxiety, and depression. In some cases, people have reported symptoms that
are often associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
These symptoms have been exacerbated by the uncertainty of the near future. Although
several organizations continue to develop a vaccine that will eradicate COVID-19, there
is no guarantee any of these will be ready by the end of the year. As such, governments
around the world continue to implement public health and safety protocols that are
adding to the collective trauma.
3. Tackling Mental Health alongside the Pandemic
Mental health, especially in these trying times, is something that concerns the global
population. By tackling the issue head-on and publicly, those suffering from anxiety,
depression, PTSD, and other mental illnesses are encouraged to find the help they
need.
Recently, mental health professionals have moved their services online. This was their
answer to the public’s need for remote therapy sessions during the height of the global
lockdown. Many have even extended clinic hours to accommodate more patients. This
is just one of the ways the private sector has stepped up to tackle mental health.
In addition to this, the UN has urged governments to provide citizens with appropriate
mental health support. Their research shows that this will reduce stress and prevent
panic, both of which are essential in compliance with new health and safety protocols.
Tackling mental health similarly to physical health is essential during this pandemic.
Otherwise, the consequences of the collective trauma will continue to be felt long after
the crisis is over.
