It’s been decades that the world has seen a pandemic like the one we are in today. COVID-19 is one such global pandemic where all of the nightmares are coming true for mankind, to maintain order and stay safe, the only thing that we can do is stay at home. But enclosing ourselves also means that our work is paused; our lives seem to be punctuated. Moreover, the everyday myths and fake news on the media and internet are eating away the remaining self-confidence in human beings. Everyone is in panic; people don’t know what to do; it’s a rush situation where each day is bringing a new horror with it. With the virus spreading like locust storm and unemployment rate soaring high, survival is becoming difficult with normalcy. Governments are reporting new numbers each day, which doesn’t help much to common men, but confirms their probable risk. With fear lurking around, people are getting diseased with hypertension. When the doors to Nature and outside world are closed, slowly, anxiety, depression and other such psychic disorders are affecting people. Psychological problems are on forever high when you have to secure your physical health from Corona virus. The paper attempts to study the proportionate relationship between Corona Virus and mental health disorders in people.
