тАЬPandemic fatigueтАЭ has “really set in” for Victorians in the stateтАЩs fourth lockdown, says National Mental Health Commission CEO Christine Morgan.

She said restrictions being reimposed can bring great тАЬpsychological distressтАЭ such as anxiety and lack of control.

тАЬWhether weтАЩre a young person who feels their education is yet again being compromised, whether weтАЩre living on our own and that sense of loneliness and being disconnected, whether weтАЩre parents, whether weтАЩre small business owners.тАЭ

She says she especially feels sympathy for students forced out of their regular routine.

тАЬMy callout is, just take that nano-step and reach out, because we are there to help people and thatтАЩs critical to ensuring we can get through.тАЭ
