And psychologists asked, “stress caused by the virus” drops to 27%, it was 58% in February
The reopening and restarting atmosphere also “relaxes” Italians. Stress, at least caused by Covid, controls 27% of Italians. But this is a decreasing number, if we take into account that in February, the month in which it was the highest in the year, it was 58%. These are the results of the latest survey – conducted between June 7 and 8 – of the “Stress Scale”, the periodic survey of the rank of psychologists, conducted by the Piepoli Institute through 503 interviews with a representative sample of the Italian population. Health David Lazzari, president of the National Council for the Rank of Psychologists (CNop), anticipates this. However, given all the stress factors, the coronavirus emergency remains at the top of the order of causes for Italians, followed by the economic situation (19%), the work situation (15%), and psychological causes (12%). Health status (10). In general, when adding various reasons, including personal ones, 58% of Italians feel nervous. “The Italians – comments Lazzari – are certainly less hardened directly by Covid. There are fewer fears regarding the pandemic. But there is still a very important and widespread malaise. What we imagined is happening, that is, with the constant access to vaccines and the low pressure of the epidemic, it will emerge Other stressful situations that have accumulated over time. We see, in fact, that elements such as work interest and relational psychological problems are increasing.” However, the “old” stressors were not only re-emerging, but were “amplified by the epidemic.”
