Pandemy and psyche: "Women suffer more from fears and depression than men" |rbb24

Was the first lockdown worse or the second?

That depends on what you look at. Ängste und Depressionen verspürten die Menschen im zweiten Lockdown eher sogar weniger als im ersten. Wir vermuten, dass da eine Art Gewöhnung eingesetzt hat.At the first Lockdown we all did not know what was going to.In the second, despite the long time, the whole thing was more predictable.

But when it comes to life satisfaction and well -being: these have decreased in the second Lockdown. Das ist insofern relevant, weil das zwei Dinge sind, die gegen einzelne Ereignisse und Krisen im Leben recht stabil sind.Say: Even the death of a life partner or a life partner usually does not change life satisfaction too much.So that we see an effect, even if it is small, is important and worries us a bit.
