Post Pandemic Stress Disorder: Recommend this article. My experience is depression as young as 8 year old; hounded by anxiety without it ever being discussed. Tackle this crisis now; do not let children suffer throughout their lives. Listen to people who have experienced the pain of depression, anxiety, excessive stress, phobias, etc. “One in four people will experience mental illness in their lives, costing the global economy an estimated $6 trillion by 2030.”

“Asylum” I shudder deep within but that is Fear. This article by Rosita Boland (Saturday 29th January 2022 Irish Times) is comprehensive. Asylum means “Refuge” but the history of the treatment of people diagnosed with mental illness is a journey we all need to explore; some of us have been there and you will see from my blog my experiences. I have written book “Fortune Favours the Brave” by Michelle Marcella Clarke on Amazon. I believe this article should be read far and wide in Ireland which has a miniscule budget allocation for mental health/illness as I prefer to use. COVID-19 was Public Health No 1 but following it is Public Health No 2 … it is called Post Pandemic Stress Disorder. The time is now to learn from people who know from experience mental illness.
