The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted mental health worldwide. Social isolation and stress about the virus, health, jobs and financial security have increased anxiety, depression, and exacerbated existing mental illness. Accessing mental health services has also become more difficult due to social distancing. Coping strategies include exercising, connecting with others virtually, getting enough sleep, and avoiding drugs/alcohol. However, the Philippines lacks sufficient mental healthcare resources as there is less than one provider per 100,000 people.
