No data to handle mental health crisis during Covid- The New Indian Express

The coronavirus is known to be extremely multifaceted, in the sense that it is able to attack different organs in the human body the lungs, liver, kidneys and even the heart. However, there is another organ that the virus attacks silently, but the effects of this are most often not visible: the human mind, and that too with extremely debilitating consequences. Several reports in the past few months have highlighted a range of mental health issues stemming from the virus.  The WHO states that the lockdown(s) imposed in several countries, including India, have induced social isolation, fear, stress and anxiety in many older adults, care providers and people with underlying health conditions. Concomitant financial distress and loss of livelihoods during this period have aggravated the aforementioned issues. 

Minding It Right- Business News

Here s why parents need to address mental health issues in children | Parenting News,The Indian Express

~ L.R. Knost Our abilities to think properly, take decisions, communication and behaviour are directly governed by our mental health. The subject of mental health, however, doesn’t get much attention in India with the focus even lower on children. The National Mental Health Survey of India (2015-2016) had estimated that nearly 7.3 per cent of Indian adolescents (13-17 years) suffer from mental health problems. One of the biggest challenges in identifying mental health issues in children is usually the fact that childhood is a time of constant behavioural changes and developments. Depending on their age, many children fail to express the reason behind their behaviour and actions. Add social stigma and bullying to that, and they usually end up not talking about their feelings and mental condition. In many cases, even parents refrain from seeking support for their children in a bid to avoid social stigma and isolation.
