The article examines how long Covid (persistent symptoms after the acute infection) affects mental health, highlighting a high incidence of conditions such as generalized anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and depression among those affected. It notes that several factors — the severity of the initial infection, intensive-care hospitalization, isolation, and social precarity — increase these risks. The article explains that the causes are likely multifactorial (biological, psychological, and social) and stresses the importance of comprehensive care that includes listening, therapy, and, when necessary, medication, as well as personal measures (relaxation techniques, adapted physical activity, social support) to help alleviate these disorders.
