COVID Pandemic Triggers Global Mental Health Crisis | WION Podcast
A global study shows that depression and anxiety surged dramatically during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, with 52 million new depression cases and 76 million anxiety cases reported. The research, led by the University of Queensland, found a 28% and 26% rise respectively. Hardest-hit countries saw the steepest increases, with women disproportionately affected due to existing social inequalities. Experts call for urgent investment in mental health services worldwide to tackle the long-term burden.

You can tell by the way they drive so obstructively 😵💫
Men are more suffering as no system or law to support them or nor listen them
No, people taking Big Pharma poisons like SSRIs/SNRIs/Wellbutrin and getting hooked on Benzos, smoking dope (a big problem in the West) and eating junk food all day is causing depression and anxiety.
There's no mental health crisis in Big Media. They shamelessly pushed everyone to get the sh*t, millions have died due to it, but they sleep well at night.
