Coronavirus has impacted not only people’s physical health, but also their mental health.

In one study, more than half of people who were hospitalised with Covid-19 were found to be suffering from a psychiatric disorder a month later, including PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Scientists have also warned that those experiencing even mild symptoms of coronavirus may suffer from serious brain damage as a result of the virus.

We’d like to talk to readers about the impact coronavirus has had on their mental health and any neurological problems they may have experienced.
