The study found that 21% of respondents have used marijuana, and of those who have used, 41% say they have done so to cope with stress, 38% for anxiety, 20% for loneliness, and 31% for depression. Meanwhile, 13% of survey respondents have spoken with a therapist as a result of anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues.
Alcohol consumption has also surged during the pandemic, with 38% of respondents reporting an increase. Dr Chhatwal said the size of some patients’ alcohol consumption increases are alarming.
