Mental health symptoms such as anxiety (19.1%), depression (12.9%), and post-traumatic stress disorder (15.7%) are common in individuals with long COVID.[123] These symptoms may be caused by the same pathophysiological mechanism as long COVID generally or may be due to the effects of chronic illness and related stressors. Routinely screen for mental health conditions using validated instruments (see Diagnosis approach - History for a selection of standardized scales used for mental health screening). Manage patients with non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic interventions for any identified mental health disorders.[128]
