Abstract
Introduction: The outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) poses an
unprecedented threat to public health. Current measures to control the spread include social
distancing, isolation and quarantine, which may trigger mental health problems and create
psychological disturbance under this continuous stress.
Method and material: The sample (N = 122) constituted two groups: people that have
been isolated and people not been isolated. The Goldberg Depression and Anxiety Scale as
measures of depression and anxiety, respectively, and Quality of life scale QOLS were
administered. A qualitative analysis of the most common verbalizations was made also.
Results and conclusion: Depression and anxiety were reported by all respondents.
Isolated respondents reported a higher likelihood to exhibit symptoms of depression and anxiety
than those not been in isolation. The COVID-19 pandemic, social distance as part of preventive
measures, and especially isolation as a preventive and therapeutic method in certain situations of
suspected and infected with the virus are undoubtedly associated with increased anxiety and
depression, as well as reduced quality of life.
