Some psychologists say there could be a connection between pandemic-related mental health issues and behavioral changes that are starting to manifest across the country.

and more that could be partially, but not entirely, tied to poor mental health conditions in the U.S., she added.

"We have seen, during the pandemic, increases in domestic violence and nondomestic violence and just people being too caught with each other and lashing out," she said."Certainly anxiety, depression and PTSD can be both causes and results of all of those things," she said, referring to post-traumatic stress disorder.

Nizzi said things won't just go back to normal once the pandemic is under control in the U.S. and everything's open again. People who are currently dealing with chronic stress, anxiety or PTSD could very well be dealing with it for quite some time.

I blame liberals. They can’t control their emotions.

Duh

Yeah but it's not like it's a real science.

We didn’t need a professional to tell us this. Just look around.

I miss Trump as our President

it's affecting the whole world

I find that some people went into overdrive when the pandemic started, but now those same people are dealing with depression and anxiety

Not me.

These will be realized for years to come.

Absolutely...I see it all around, a blind person can See this,.from day One...this may take A very long time to see & understand the after Effects.👍😎

This pandemic has actually made me more social than ever. I was thrilled about the idea of working from home a year ago but now Im counting down the days that I can commute to work.

People need more breaks or days off, or to slowly be eased back to normal work. You don't start up a Porsche at 5AM and rev it as soon as the crankshaft turns. You'll bust a head, cylinder, gasket, or displace oil. You don't drain any kind of battery fast either.

It's not the pandemic. It's the five years of toxicity spewong from the maw of the orange liar.

No duh

I seen this coming when it all started 🤦🏿‍♂️

Did we have this problem after the Spanish flu

That much is obvious.

I work for a hotel and let me assure you people have lost their minds.

all part of the plan, to push psychedelic mushrooms upon the masses in about a year. Will be the next cash cow for pharmaceuticals , like MindMed Inc.. Its one of those times in my life I wish I had any money to invest. Ebay was my last $ vibe hit in the 90s but again GenX broke

Is it caused by pandemic or stupid lockdowns enforced by politicians? If someone destroys your life, business, and you are helpless it will take a tall on you.

Oh you mean the rude aggressive people you see everywhere that have no patience or manners and think they should be bumped to the front of the line because they are obviously better than anyone else. Hadn't noticed but they are probably the same people who hoarded TP.

Ya think?!

Shocker

We just all figured out how much we hate other humans.

Are we blaming rampant crime in very-specific States/neighborhoods that has be ongoing for 20+ years under certain elected officials on the COVID now? Sure seems like it...🧐

The study started in April of last year. That means there's not a way within the framework of the study to see if fhere is a longer curve here. Civility in America has been crushed and gotten steadily, observably worse since the 2016 election. This isn't all down to a pandemic.

I call bullshit ... Those ppl already HAD the mental health illness pre-pandemic, we just forgot since we haven't seen them in over a year🤧

Humans imitate each other.

Please don’t excuse racist attacks this way. We had a leader who publicly encouraged racism and violence for 4 years, that had a large effect.

Turns out when you ramp up the fear porn to 11 to float your sinking media companies some people break, weird.

Ya think?

Don’t forget get (checks notes) climate change!

Extreme mental reactions to extreme situations are always labelled as mental illnesses. There was a time assertive women were treated as mentally Ill patients. Why can't we just be? Everything doesn't require a label does it. We know less about the world than there is to it.

It's called liberalism!

Oh so domestic violence is because of a stress response, got it.

Manifest its self? They’ve always been there. People have gotten more emboldened.

I wouldn't blame it on the pandemic. The evidence has been out there that this has been a process that began a long time ago. Our behavior as a society has been deteriorating since the 80's

Probably the spike of the vaccine have gotten into there brains and reaping havoc

B.S.

Sometimes people are just assholes and now feel free to let their asshole flag fly.

its probably news articles that have pictures of a person screaming with viruses behind her in red.

People are starting to have to face the fact that things are NOT always like they want them. And they are having a tough time dealing with it....

Yeah. Stanford Medical released a paper explaining that human biology is evolving to where all future generations will be emotionally based in their choices. All is explained here.

Don't prolong the 'WORLDWIDE' pandemic: 1) Wear a double-mask for the foreseeable future or until we're all safely out of the woods. 2) Get vaccinated; it's better to be safe than sorry. 3) And, it's far from being over! But, when it's finally over you'll know. 4) Stay safe.

we are not even able to hire lawyer when I told him we are still in pandemic what the hell u doing where is human Rights? the estate lawyer said no human rights & he told me I issue subpoenas & arrest u he told my husband don’t piss me off & he sue the guardian

Airplane incidents?

In school U R given a lesson then a test . With the US armed forces , I was given the test to learn the lesson from. Dear POTUS VP SecBlinken SecMayorkas US SENATORS Iraqi Interpreters passed the test and learned the lesson: USA comes 1ST always & forever pls save’em with SIV

Yeah I’m a huge bitch all the time now

Just let natural selection run it's course...

Yeah, you force people into near prison status, pepper them with bullshit 24/7, what the fuck you think is going to happen?

No fucking shit

TeresaWeakley It’s definitely time to get back to the “normalcy” of the stress that comes from wasting time & money every day commuting to an office where you do the same job that can be done at home. If big brother can’t physically see you slaving away at all times, you’re not really working!

Yeah? weird what happens when you destroy communities and fearfully lock people in their homes with occasional dehumanizing mask-wearing distanced errands or work.

The frauds practiced by the Italian population are persistent, even the European community has expressed doubts about the capacity of the same State which has not yet revised its position.

Yes , I see and feel this in society, ..It is quite Possible. With all the upheaval in life nowadays.could it be a “Mental virus” ..?

Glad to hear I’m not the only one that’s completely lost my tits

I am trolling on Twitter at 1 AM. The work-from-home mandate has not affected me at all.

How about going through a horrific pandemic last year and watching our dear leader express zero empathy or sympathy for the dead, while half the country goes out and votes for the guy as an expression of pure cynicism. Then an attempted coup cheered by 1/3 of the country? 🤔🤔🤐

171 mass shooting events do not happen in a healthy society

Add it to the list of mental health issues America faces. Hopefully treatment doesn't require you to file bankruptcy.

I concur!

🧑‍⚕️👩🏿‍⚕️

There could be. There ARE.

The stress is real.

The connection is the fake news and the propaganda that you and the rest of the media spin that is having the worst effect on people's mental health! Quit making up lies and fears!

SO NOW WERE NUTS... IS THAT RIGHT?

When logic hits you like a bomb and your brain hits overdrive with certainty spinning wildly and connecting dots, remain calm and make sense as you explain or you’ll be deemed ignorable for being too load.

These people been crazy Af.

And on the flip side, Covid19 was fantastic for me. My mental, physical and financial health has never been better.

Click bait

Just “starting“?

It’s fascist and socialist stress !

And in America, we add in tons o guns! Gonna be a deadly summer

New Issues = changes. Got it

You know what's stressful? People acting like the pandemic is over just because they got a shot. If they would read more, then I could be calmer. (But whatever: it's your brain not mine, although maybe you won't even notice after it has been permanently damaged by delta....)

Some other psychologists say it's high-fructose corn sryup and space aliens turning us into electric crazy people.

This will be a Hollywood movie within two years. 'They thought the real disease was covid. But the real threat? RAGEDEMIC!!! In theatres this Fall.'

absolutely. Increased anxieties especially re crowds. Cannot even imagine first plane trip. Looking at tv Resorts World wall to wall ppl gave panic attack.

...Plus the fact that many people with mental health problems are too ashamed/embarrassed to even admit to it, don't forget that group.

The BEHAVIORAL/MENTAL HEALTH issues were already escalating pre-pandemic ..especially after the sociopath orange dude 45 took office. Orange dude brought out the NUTS in 2017 …then the PANDEMIC in 2020..and MORE NUTS emerged ….Then the Jan 6 2021 insurrection! This is….

Woooow you don't say

I used the isolation to stay spiritually grounded, soul search, become better, creative, prayerful avoiding covid, by obedience, staying spiritual connected...to God. Versus becoming despondent, angry, no masks, wherein sin finds a playground.

No shit

See: people still wearing masks.

Yes, we are polarized and all want to kill each other. Novel.

“Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.” ― Abraham Lincoln

No shit. I think the pandemic has given us all slight PTSD

Throughout the pandemic I kept wondering “I wonder how we are going to begin managing the collective societal trauma after this is all over.” It turns out the answer is “we’re not.”

Possibly caused by the vaccine that has yet to be proven safe by FDA standards of vaccines. Remember no long term trial has been preformed.

Are they studying the connection between our psychotic media orgs and mental health issues? I feel like that could answer a lot of questions for us.

Idk what the fuck Boba tea is but don’t tell me because I don’t want to know what Boba is why would you put fucking marbles in a drink.

Ya think?

considering that the population was psychologically terrorized and still is I can understand this

Ya think?!

NJ is stealing people's money! Thanks to covid I was forced to live in my RV so I didn't infect my roommates daughters kids. And now without warning and last min be cut off when my benefits & PUA are good till Sept 4th but nj desides they'll just keep the money! Needs to stop!!

No shit…..

How about living in America-related? Are “some” saying that’s changing anyone’s behavior?

MNmomto4 It’s this. “We're setting people up for failure by saying 'we're back to normal.' Are we? What exactly is 'back to normal'? The beach is open. OK. How does that impact the fact that I'm processing an entire year of a lot of things going wrong?'

Could be? Behavioral changes? AMERICA?! I hadn't noticed...

We all had a near-death experience. It would be shocking if nothing was wrong.
