I'm looking for a mental health expert that can discuss why the
pandemic is affecting our mental health, focus and productivity
and ways that we can combat the effects.
Must be a psychologist, psychiatrist or other mental health
expert.
Requirements:
Must be a mental health professional.
Please answer these questions if you're interested:
1. Can you briefly summarize your expertise on this topic? 2.
Why is it so difficult to focus and be productive during the
pandemic? What is it about this crisis that is affecting us in
this way? 3. When the pandemic first started and the
stay-at-home orders were first issued, I didn't actually find it
that hard to focus. I got to work sooner and felt very

normal? Why is it happening? 4. What are some ways we can try to
combat our difficulty focusing during the pandemic? 5. How can
we re-arrange our workspaces in our home to help improve focus?
