01.01.2022 With the spread of COVID-19, the novel coronavirus, we’ve seen changes in people’s behaviour to protect their physical health, but we are also seeing the impact... of the virus on people’s mental health. It has been stressful and frightening for many, particularly for those who already experience anxiety or for those who have physical conditions that may increase their vulnerability to the virus. Below are some tips that may help you take care of your mental health in the wake of the outbreak. Take a break A lot of news or social media can be alarmist in tone and may spread misinformation, or generally be quite overwhelming, so taking some time away from updates can help give you space to recharge. Stay connected Reaching out to friends, family, helplines or even our Anxiety Support Groups can help keep you connected with others who might be able to talk with you about what you’re feeling. Refer to reputable sources for information Government websites, like the federal Department of Health, NSW Health or Smartraveller, are a good place to get information that is factual and practical. Be kind to yourself and others It’s understandable to feel distressed or overwhelmed; it’s also important to not let our fears make us treat others poorly because of their ethnicity and that illnesses can affect anyone regardless of nationality or other attributes. Follow official advice Although it may change in the future, at the moment, Australians are being advised to go about their day as usual with added precautions around hygiene unless affected by work or school closures or currently under testing and quarantine for COVID-19; it could also be useful to practice the calming techniques that work for you. For those who are anxious about the financial impacts of COVID-19, the Australian government has also announced cash payments to those who are on pensions or Newstart alongside boosts to other parts of the economy, and some employers are working with casual employees to support them to stay at home. It is good to be up-to-date with the alerts and statements being shared by NSW and Australian governments, as the situation is a changing one. However, there is no need to be panicked, though it might feel difficult. The situation regarding COVID-19 might feel overwhelming for some, but it is good to keep in mind that the Australian government has prepared for scenarios such as this and there has been a strong response among the global community in tackling the virus.
