“We are justifiably focused on the here and now of the pandemic, but I believe there is a looming, second-order mental health crisis that is only beginning to emerge,” said B4SA’s public outreach workstream head Judy Nwokedi, who is also COO of Tourvest. The SA Depression and Anxiety Group said the volume of calls to its helpline has doubled since the start of the lockdown, to between 1,200 and 1,400 calls a day.
