Approximately 13 percent of over 1,000 respondents in a study in Singapore reported symptoms of anxiety or depression during Covid-19 pandemic, whilst 81.8 per cent of the 13 per cent said they would be willing to seek professional help for mental health issues relating to the virus*. A far cry from pre-Covid studies where the stigma of mental illness and the inability to recognise the symptoms allows for that percentage to drop significantly. With more awareness on the importance of mental health, the general public are now much more informed and are taking their mental health a lot more seriously than before.
