Interrupted treatments, heightened anxiety and enforced isolation during the coronavirus pandemic could cause lasting damage to mental health, especially to those with existing conditions

Billions of people from the U.S. to Italy have been ordered to stay at home. Germany, Australia and the U.K. have determined that two people are a crowd and millions are cut off from family members, lovers and friends.

What may add to the confinement induced issues are the daily news briefs by Governors. When you start every conversation with negative information first, you induce negative thinking, and often it is the first thing people remember. Mental health pros should attend daily briefs.

Don’t worry. Just enjoy simple and calm life for yourself. Everything will be fine.☺️🌳

They should try being chronically Ill. At least this situation is temporary for most people

“Beginning”?

2222vj Gee WSJ is always 3 weeks behind the President. He is always better informed and right, unlike the emotional WSJ

seanmdav Gee this is what President Trump spoke about a FEW WEEKS ago and all Media Collectively Clutched their Pearls

seanmdav I would like to see the number of suicides between March and when this madness ends. Not to mention the 17 MILLION people who lost their ability to feed themselves and their family.

LockdownNo Headline is misleading. Not the plandemic causing this. The lockdown is.

seanmdav all this for a respiratory flu INSANITY!!!!

seanmdav How many alcoholics are losing their sobriety during this lockdown? I bet a lot given that alcohol consumption is up.

maggieNYT Having a touch of ADD and OCD myself I just channel my bad thoughts toward Trump and hope the pandemic will at least ensure a landslide defeat for this scourge of an administration.

seanmdav Well sure they would.

seanmdav Getting together is how we cope. We are left with nothing to cope with. No support- no warmth of a hug -no hand to reach out - nothing tender translates through a monitor with zoom

mikiebarb Surprise!

seanmdav Oh, so it seems Trump was right after all. Will anyone tell that horrible PBS reporter?

seanmdav Thankful my closest neighbor is a quarter mile away.

maggieNYT Is any of that worse than dying from drowning in your own lung sauce? Asking for a friend.

mikiebarb No shit

居家隔离久了,会出现易激惹和暴躁的心理疾病!

What a load of horseshit. 'The people are sad because they're not making mega-profits for us.'

Anxiety is more from “how am I going to pay my mortgage, car payment, cc bills caused by the unemployment” not sitting home and watching porn all day long!

You are helping Trump to end isolation

Ya think

Yes, because the Stalinist liberals can't use other pathologies as an excuse to oppress you, so they don't care about them.

I’m reading this article on Twitter at 524am.

Welcome to my reality. Agoraphobia has reared its head.

3) Come on people you can do it. You can stay home. It is just because you have been indoctrinated to fear and dislike staying home. Appreciate your loved ones.

2) Other people have fought combat. Doctors, nurses on frontlines. You would think Americans could buck it up a little bit to stay home avoid risk getting coronavirus and spreading it.

Are Americans so weak you can't stay home with family for a few months? It is not fun to risk health to go out during epidemic to get food without mask. But staying home we can buck it up.

Narendermodi pmoindia fightagainstcorona YogiAdityanath StayHome please also look people who are alone like me & desperate to meet her kid ..

I am not a doctor but i know that if you stay locked in the house, you might have a bad day so get some fresh air and take care of things around the house to break the monotony or call a friend.

If I lived in the US I’d be stressed!

WSJ sure loves those glass half empty stories, makes for good clickbait. Such spiritually empty vicious twisted propagandists looking to make a fast buck during these trying times. Why not publish helpful stories, of courage, resilience and strength?

I suffer from schizophrenia and I can tell you from experience it made it worse

It's not surprising. Being quarantined & unproductive for 14 days is tough.

one part of the world: I'm stressed ,hypervigilant whe I go out, depressed, anxious...etc. and in another part of the world: hunger is everywhere

'In a mad world only the mad are sane'

That was the whole point of the exercise, and basic combat triage. Keep the left hand from knowing what the right hand is doing by enforcing isolation, misinformation and punting fear tactics via the MSM.

🙃

We will forever be affected by this mentally. Things will not be the same again.

The media along with bad leadership at all levels create enough anxiety for the average American sitting home watching TV all day. Then their are those who don’t want to work cause they like free money.

Sad, that American /China media look at us and see weakness, lack of mental toughness. WSJ let me inform you, this is just a sharpening of the sword. A sword must be stressed, hammered to make it hard and strong. America is being made hard and stronger than we were.

Please, we incarcerate people for more time then this, and think little about their mental health.

Still, better than the virus.

It is beside economic melt down poverty suicides and rise of crimes

According to China's experience, phobias can also erupt in the face of children.😊

As long as ppl wear masks and dont gather in a crowd tell me what is the point of a curfew....FYI if your in your car driving around I doubt you cant catch corona ..some of this stuff does not make sense

i already had ocd, so im good

I thought Trump was just making that stuff up?

At some point we are going to have to integrate these issues into the models to help us analyze the cost benefit between opening up the economy too soon or too late.

Flesh is weak

Didn't Trump warn us of this exact problem if we enforced quarantines for too long and the media went into a frenzy to say he didn't know what he was talking about?

No one is immune to COVID19 nor Mental health issues

Exactly, so stop the nonsense 'isolation'.

Just who is behind the world-wide everybody needs mentalhealth push? I suspect it is a lobby of practitioners.

This is a very important and troubling consequences. I can personally attest to this struggle.

It’s the mental health of the huge orange asshole in the White House that scares me.

I wish it were different 🙏🏾

Not “could”, it already is.

I have schizophrenia and this whole situation made it worse

My phone is definitely 'used' but i got to live with it, you know what i mean? Now i cant read how battery power i have left because the ink blot has covered it. I have to do something about this. It is cracked everywhere. It's about time I start looking for a different phone.

Birx & Fauci don’t care. Their paychecks continue. All this misery using faulty data. Unforgivable.

Wait they made fun of Trump when he said this.

Social distancing is a wonderful concept for the mind as well.

It has actually been a good thing for me. People have minded their own business here in my town and stopped focusing in on me.

You do recall that President Trump brought this concern forward 2-3 weeks ago.

TRUE!

Oh my god poor baby!!

We were crazy before coronavirus... just wait till this is over. Might want to fire up the psychiatrists, psychologists, and psychiatric nurses Corps. Number 1. recommended cure for anxiety and depression: Exercise

WOW.
