BETHESDA, Md. (Ivanhoe Newswire) — Nadie esta inmune al estado de ansiedad que provoca el COVID, por el temor al contagio, el confinamiento y una economia en crisis. Pero los jovenes que estaban incorporandose al mercado laboral quizas estan siendo los mas golpeados. Hoy, un nuevo estudio del CDC muestra los efectos de la pandemia sobre la salud mental de la llamada generacion confinada.

Todas las mañanas, en vez de ir a trabajar, Matthew Whoriskey juega al baloncesto. Mathew recibio su diploma universitario por correo y al igual que cientos de miles de recien graduados de la llamada generacion confinada esta buscando empleo en medio de una crisis sanitaria y economica. Un estudio del CDC determino que un 63 por ciento de jovenes entre los 18 y 24 años de edad mostraban cuadros de ansiedad o depresion. Un 25 por ciento dijo recurrir mas al alcohol o algun tipo de drogas para lidiar con el estrés, y un 25 por ciento indico haber considerado seriamente el suicidio.

Brandon Stratford, PhD, es un investigador con experiencia en el campo de la educacion y la salud mental juvenil. El ve estas cifras con alarma. Y recomienda a los padres usar los mas recientes titulares sobre COVID y salud mental para generar un dialogo con sus hijos, especialmente si no viven en la misma casa. Stratford tambien aconseja dar a los hijos la informacion de donde y como pueden solicitar ayuda sicologica en la universidad. Al igual que ofrecerles un apoyo incondicional sin juzgarlos, dejandoles saber que estan ahí para oir todos sus problemas no importa cuan graves.

Si conoce a algun joven que esta mostrando sintomas agudos de ansiedad o tendencias suicidas o usted mismo necesita ayuda, pueden contactar el National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, al 1 800 273 8255, o al crisis textline enviando un ensaje de texto al 741741. Asimismo pueden recurrir al Trevor Project para LGBTQ youth and loved ones en el 866  488 7386.
