It is and will be a very serious issue SearingDrive you are absolutely correct.SearingDrive wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 6:22 pm I can see an increase in mental health issues post lockdown.
We've heard non-stop for the last 10 years how important it is recognise signs in people who may be struggling and for people to not be afraid and speak up if they are. Well you can barely get a GP's appointment these days and anyone struggling might think they would be wasting a doctors time with the pandemic ongoing. I know that the dressing room and matches are a huge part of peoples lives and now they may not have anyone keeping an eye on them.
What I can't understand in all of this is how it seems that nothing matters in this country except the deaths "with," "of" or "from" covid.
These are regrettable yes but the lockdowns are arguably creating a far worse state of affairs. What is it now......a million waiting on outpatient appointments? God help anyone suffering out there from non-covid related illness because you are being treated as if you don't matter.
This is all arguable yes, but in the country discussing, arguing and debating are all frowned upon now.
These are dark times and are only looking like they will get worse. God help us.
