Abstract

The Covid-19 outbreak and shutdown have had an impact on children throughout the world, isolating them from their friends, reducing physical exercise, and causing them to lose out on important aspects of their development. This is how the shutdown affected children’s mental health. The importance of devoting focus to the students' mental health cannot be overstated. Over 53percent of Indian Children suffer from moderate to severe depression, as per a study released in the Asian Journal of Psychiatry. According to our research, 74 percent of Indian Children suffer moderately severe anxiety. Our students have suffered greatly as a result of the Covid-19 epidemic and shutdown. They were among the hardest hit emotional level: 58 percent of Indian college students reported a considerable rise in stress and a serious worsening in hostility, worry, isolation, pessimism, and joy. This study data was gathered from parents about the behavior of their children during the COVID pandemic situation. Lack of attention, emotional neediness, diversion, and anxiety of posing questions about just the pandemic was one of the most prevalent behavioral and mental health disorders among children and teens during the epidemic, according to the study result. Those who have a history of mental illness are at a significantly higher risk.
