Abstract | The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on mental health and presented hitherto unprecedented difficulties for public health worldwide. With a general population emphasis, this review investigated the effects of COVID-19 on mental health. This study comprehensively reviews the mental impacts, contributory variables and coping mechanisms associated with the pandemic's influence on mental health in general population without a history of mental illness through the existing literature. In addition, it also explored various factors contributing to the exacerbation of mental health issues during that crisis. This review intended to provide insights into the particular issues experienced by the general population and suggest techniques for increasing mental resilience during such times. The COVID-19 pandemic had not only posed a severe threat to physical health but also led to significant repercussions on mental well-being globally. Through an analysis of existing literature, this study discussed the effects of the pandemic on different populations including healthcare workers, frontline responders, individuals with pre-existing mental health conditions and the general public. Furthermore, it examined the role of social isolation, economic stressors, misinformation and fear of illness in aggravating mental health challenges. Additionally, this study highlighted the importance of addressing mental health concerns amidst the pandemic and proposes strategies for alleviating the adverse effects on mental well-being. |
