Survey Finds COVID’s Mental Impact Across the Globe By Batya Swift Yasgur, MA March 16, 2021 A new survey of the mental health impact of COVID-19 in several countries shows high rates of trauma and mood disorders related to the virus. The survey, conducted by Sapien Labs, was conducted in eight English-speaking countries and included 49,000 adults. It showed that 57% of respondents experienced some COVID-19-related adversity or trauma. Roughly one-quarter showed clinical signs of, or were at risk for, a mood disorder, and only 40% described themselves as succeeding or thriving. Those who reported the poorest mental health were young adults and individuals who experienced financial adversity or were unable to receive care for other medical conditions. Not getting enough sleep, exercise, or face-to-face socialization also increased the risk for poorer mental well-being.
