The inhabitants of Nova Scotia are as much as possible to revel in the highest levels of anxiety and depression since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic across the country, according to a report published Friday through Mental Health Research Canada.
The tests were conducted in April and August.
Prior to the pandemic, according to the report, six, in line with the percentage of Nova Scotians, reported maximum levels of anxiety. Since the onset of the COVID-19 crisis, this number has increased to 27%.
High levels of depression during the pandemic were reported in 16% of New Scotland’s inhabitants, up from 7% before the pandemic.
Elsewhere, Alberta residents with the highest levels of depression were on par with Nova Scotia, while those who had anxiety in Ontario and Newfoundland and Labrador were at 25%.
Across Canada, the survey report indicates that anxiety grades quadrupled the COVID-19 pandemic.
Prior to the pandemic, about 5% of Canadians reported maximum levels of anxiety. The number increased to 20% after the epidemic and remains the peak.
The report indicates that the number of Canadians suffering from depression doubled COVID-19 to 13% from 6% before the pandemic.
He says the removal of COVID-19 restrictions has not shown degrees of depression and anxiety.
“The COVID-19 epidemic has caused many Canadians to lose access to intellectual aptitude services,” MHRC said in the report.
Access to the council has halved, he says.
However, the report says Canadians are now more likely to be positive about their intellectual aptitude if isolation persists.
The number of Canadians expecting maximum levels of anxiety after two months of isolation has fallen to 14%, up from 22% at the beginning of the pandemic.
Nova Scotia residents, on the other hand, are more likely to expect high degrees of anxiety and depression if isolation continues for two more months.
However, the report indicates that Atlantic Canadians, along with Quebecers, are more confident in their “ability to recover” in the face of the demanding situations of the pandemic: 20% at a national rate of 17%.
According to the report, a decrease in intellectual aptitude is obviously similar to economic stress.
“A quarter of Canadians say the ability not to pay bills . . . has a negative effect on intellectual health.
High degrees of anxiety are likely to continue as the Canadian Emergency Response Fund ended last week.
It is similar to the strain of contracting the virus and anxiety for others.
“Canadians remain the maxims involved in their circle of relatives, and some of them say their fear of the circle of relatives continues to have a negative effect on their intellectual health,” MHRC says in the report.
In addition, MHRC found that tension similar to the circle of relatives and non-public relations also increases the pandemic.
“At the beginning of the epidemic, Canadians reported that communicating with friends / family circles outdoors and inside the home had a positive effect on intellectual health, but now a fifth . . . report that those interactions have a negative effect en, ”the report says.
In addition, more Canadian teachers report higher levels of pandemic anxiety than the national average.
At 25%, the number of teachers reporting intellectual fitness disorders has increased by up to 500% since the beginning of the pandemic, the report says.
In Nova Scotia, many talked about their tension and anxiety before school reopened last month.
The allegations included the lack of transparency of the government component in its back-to-school plan. Teachers said they feared for the protection of schoolchildren as well as their own families.
The MHRC report found that at the national level, more than 44% of teachers are involved in the capture of COVID-19 and part “feel that the negative has an effect on social isolation on their intellectual aptitude”. Above the national average, access to intellectual aptitude aid declined for teachers during the pandemic.
In addition, the report indicates that more than a portion of Canadians diagnosed with temperament disorder or intellectual disorder prescription drugs as a way to control it.
The MHRC indicates that a similar survey will be conducted in mid-October to determine whether numbers will continue to increase as Canadians enter a wave of COVID-19.
