During the COVID-19 epidemic, when many people are in lockdown or self-isolating, mental health may suffer. If you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed by all this, then be assured that this is a very common reaction.

The epidemic limited our lives to such an extent that it began to affect our mental health and physical health.
The Modern Lifestyle changes due to Imitation and Covid 19 lifestyle changes is due to sudden compulsion. Discussed how to minimize affect on health (physical, mental, social, occupational etc.)

Mental Illnesses were thought to be caused by supernatural means, such as demonic possession, witchcraft, or an angry god, which would lead to either exorcisms (if they were said to be possessed by a demon), or unjust witch trials (if they were said to be witches), which included burning at the stake, drowning, or hanging.
In the 18th century, asylums were made to separate mentally ill people from society. However, the conditions were,horrible, as patients were beaten, chained to beds, and kept in rooms described as windowless dungeons. French physician Philippe Pinel practiced more human treatment of patients by conversing with them, leading to improvements in the patients
In the 19th Century, Dorothea Dix led mental health reforms in the US, which found that asylums were underfunded and not regulated, which led to abuse of it’s patients.

practicing social distancing. Consider
scheduling regular online chats with people
you trust for emotional support to feel less
lonely and isolated.

grounding techniques, and meditation are
helpful self-management strategies to manage
low mood, stress, and anxiety.
17. Examples of Self-Management Strategies
17
Positive Distractions
Watching movies, reading a book,
listening to music, or cooking your
favorite meals can block worries
and alleviate negative moods.
Journal Writing
Writing down your worries can help
you reframe your thoughts from
nonproductive worries into action-
focused solutions.
Mind Dumping
Clear your mind by imagining yourself
figuratively taking out the clutter and
dumping them on a sheet of paper.
Worry Time
Twice a day, set aside 10 minutes
exclusively for worry time.
Breathing Exercises
Having anxiety can sometimes leave
your feeling breathless. However,
breathing exercises can alleviate
symptoms, put your body in a
relaxed state, and help make you
feel better over-all.
Grounding
Techniques
When anxiety gets overwhelming,
grounding techniques help
separate your mind from the
distress, ground your senses, and

and-now.
