Answer: Loneliness, grief, loss, anxiety, ect.

Explanation: People can be lonely when in isolation and quarantine, or can be grieving due to a family member's passing after catching the coronavirus. They can also feel a loss, being unable to be around their closest friends and family. And, people can get strong amounts of anxiousness/anxiety, waiting for test results, watching cases spike, ect.

Answer:

Perhaps some may develop social anxiety from not being in a public environment surrounded by people on a daily basis. (Some introverts might become more self conscious because they aren't used to being in front of friends and strangers anymore). Some people who don't contact their friends as much may withdraw into depression or spiral into very low self-esteem.

Those who lost their jobs may be experiencing unhealthy amounts of stress and could be depressed and/or suicidal if they don't have a healthy way to cope.
