ABSTRACT

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, global statistics on mental illness and disorders (including neurological and substance use disorders; suicide risk and related psychosocial and cognitive impairments) were already disappointing. In this connection, the world economy is suffering serious financial losses, and the social sphere is faced with the need to organize socio-psychological support and rehabilitation of citizens experiencing certain psychological problems. The purpose of this work is to present data reflecting the work of psychiatrists and psychologists in providing counseling and rehabilitation psychological assistance to citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic through indicators of the depth of anxiety of citizens who applied for appropriate services.
