Tips from WHO to Maintain Mental Health During the COVID-19 Pandemic

In the midst of the Corona or COVID-19 pandemic , apart from threatening physical health, it also affects a person's mental health. Therefore, apart from maintaining physical health, it is also important to maintain mental health during the pandemic, Mother.

This is important because for some people, the pandemic situation makes them vulnerable to stress. Especially for people who have been laid off (PHK) or mothers who take care of children all day during the pandemic.

Citing the World Health Organization (WHO) page, there are many things that can be done to survive through the current situation. Here are five tips from WHO to maintain mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic:

1. Looking for the latest and most reliable information

In the midst of a situation full of uncertainty, you and your family must continue to listen to suggestions and recommendations from the government. Always update information and choose reliable information sources to avoid behavioral health codes for billing misleading information.

If you get information from social media, don't swallow it raw. You have to filter the information and make sure it's true, so that you don't get stressed with all the news circulating.

2. Do a new routine

During the pandemic, many activities outside the home or office have shifted to home. So that you don't get stressed, bored, and stay excited about doing activities at home, do a new routine, Mom.

Some examples of new routines that can be done, including:

. Get up and go to bed at the same time every day
. Maintain personal hygiene
. Eat healthy foods at regular times
. Exercise regularly
. Allocate work and rest time in a balanced way
. Make time to do things that you or your family love

3. Restrict access to news

Limiting access to news from any sources that can cause anxiety and depression can reduce you and your family from potential stress. We recommend that you look for the latest information at certain times of the day.

4. Discipline to keep your distance

Keeping a distance is important to avoid potential infection. And even though you keep your distance, you and your family can still socialize and communicate with relatives and friends and colleagues via telephone or internet channels.

5. Help others in need

In a pandemic situation, you and your family can grow your baby's care to help others in need. Making yourself feel useful for others will make you and your family feel better, so you can maintain mental health .

In addition, it is important not to discriminate against COVID-19 patients, Mother. Even if there is a fear of being infected, don't hurt the patient's feelings by not communicating with them.
