The pandemic has increased the prevalence of depression and anxiety, increased stress levels, and worsened mental health in general as social connectedness decreased, uncertainty about the future increased and in some areas IPV and child abuse increased.

Yours sincerely, Bulcsu Szekely
So far, there is no satisfactory answer to this question due to the lack of accurate statistics.
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted or halted critical mental health services in 93% of countries worldwide while the demand for mental health is increasing, according to a new WHO survey. The survey of 130 countries provides the first global data showing the devastating impact of COVID-19 on access to mental health services and underscores the urgent need for increased funding.
There are no real statistics about the extent of the pandemic's impact on the psychological and mental status in all countries of the world, but it certainly has a negative impact on the psychological state
It has caused a lot of academic anxiety and stress among students due to the precipitous and distressing transition to online learning...

I have received more shocking news in this regard. Mental health is very important and should be regarded as priority.
Bereavement, isolation, loss of income and fear are triggering mental health conditions or exacerbating existing ones. Many people may be facing increased levels of alcohol and drug use, insomnia, and anxiety. Meanwhile, COVID-19 itself can lead to neurological and mental complications, such as delirium, agitation, and stroke. People with pre-existing mental, neurological or substance use disorders are also more vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection ̶ they may stand a higher risk of severe outcomes and even death.
