The threat from COVID-19 reaches far beyond our physical health, social lives and economy. Anxiety, trauma and depression are natural responses to stress and uncertainty, and mental health experts are bracing for impact. Charles Nemeroff, M.D., Ph.D., Frances Champagne, Ph.D., and Robert Messing, M.D., examine current mental health trends and how COVID-19 is affecting people with preexisting conditions, populations at risk and those working on the front line. They discuss the interventions that are needed now to stabilize and address mental health before mental illness becomes the next pandemic.
