“…However, the findings of this study contradict this premise, corroborating a finding revealing that most of the older adults with DM present moderate resilience levels when related to functional capacity 14 . Therefore, when observing that people over the age of 60 had a lower resilience levels, a possible relationship is inferred from the fact that older adults are included in the risk group for the worst COVID-19 prognosis and sometimes live with chronic diseases, requiring more care and demanding that they practice social isolation in order to protect themselves, so that confinement has generated feelings of impotence and uncertainty, in addition to depression and anxiety [15][16] . The difference in the resilience level related to different age groups was not verified in a study carried out before the pandemic, as it was a population living with another chronic disease 17 .…”

Objective: to verify the association of socioeconomic and clinical data and behavioral habits with the resilience level in people with Diabetes Mellitus during social distancing in the pandemic caused by the new coronavirus disease. Method: a cross-sectional, analytical and exploratory study. The population consisted of users monitored in the Family Health Strategy, diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus, in the municipality of Cuité, Paraíba, Brazil. The sample consisted of 300 participants. The data were collected between November 2020 and February 2021 and operationalized through two forms: one containing socioeconomic and clinical aspects, as well as behavioral habits; and another that was part of the Connor Davidson Resilience Scale for Brazil, consisting of 25 items divided into four factors, namely: tenacity, adaptability, tolerance, dependence on external support, and intuition. In the bivariate analysis, the Pearson's Chi-square and Fisher's Exact tests were performed, and the prevalence ratio was calculated, along with the respective 95% confidence intervals. Finally, Poisson Regression with robust variance was applied. Results: the prevalence of having high resilience levels was 43% higher in people under 60 years old, 39% higher in Evangelicals, 36% higher in people who consumed alcoholic beverages and 29% higher in people who practiced some physical activity. Conclusion: an association was evidenced between socioeconomic/clinical data and behavioral habits and a high resilience level; such findings lead to the elaboration of inclusive actions during the pandemic, especially considering the emotional and social aspects, in order to suggest the creation of care strategies aimed at mental health.

“…As for the manifestation of this symptomatology, it has been found according to lifecycle studies that children are most likely to develop attachment and fear related to the concern that family members may contract the disease, as well as [ 97 ] opposition-challenging behaviors [ 98 ]. Younger patients tend to have higher levels of depression, associated with deprivation of liberty and the closure of schools [ 99 , 100 ], while older adults have recorded depression related to decreased activity level, sleep quality, well-being, and cognitive functioning [ 101 ], in addition to those who are widowers or separated being associated with a higher risk of developing emotional disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic [ 102 ].…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the lives of the worldwide population. Citizens suffer the social, economic, physiological, and psychological effects of this pandemic. Primary sources, scientific articles, and secondary bibliographic indexes, databases, and web pages were used for a consensus critical review. The method was a narrative review of the available literature to summarize the existing literature addressing mental health concerns and stressors related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The main search engines used in the present research were PubMed, SciELO, and Google Scholar. We found the pandemic has had a direct impact on psychopathologies such as anxiety, increasing its ratios, and depression. Other syndromes such as burnout and post-traumatic stress disorder have increased with the pandemic, showing a larger incidence among medical personnel. Moreover, eating disorders and violence have also increased. Public authorities must prepare healthcare systems for increasing incidences of mental pathologies. Mental health apps are one of the tools that can be used to reach the general population.
