Abstract

This paper focuses primarily on the psychological effects due to social distancing. As the outbreak of COVID-19 ensues, questions are being raised for the safety and security of people suffering from various psychological issues like depression, anxiety, loneliness and so on. While such issues are being deliberated upon, we are urged to deliberate on how isolation can affect mental health in general, especially among younger people. The goal of this paper is to address the mental effects on adolescents who might be even more ill-equipped to deal with psychological issues. It also deals with career and work-related issues that students have to worry about due to social distancing. The research methodology used in the paper includes questionnaires, surveys and literature review to understand the perspective of individuals. The paper shall also be open for further discussion on similar issues in the face of a global pandemic.
