The Central Statistics Office has published a survey detailing the long-term social impacts of the pandemic experience and the restrictions associated with Covid-19 five years on.

It details how Covid-19 has impacted relationships, social behaviours, social interactions with others, working habits and consumption habits.

The results show that a quarter of respondents now try to avoid handshaking. Women are more likely to avoid it, with one-in-three saying they try to avoid shaking hands.

This compares with just 18% of men. The survey also found that 61% of women said they wash their hands more often than before the pandemic, compared with 51% of men.

In high school, while my friends leaned toward fine arts and sciences, I gravitated toward religion and philosophy, always searching for meaning, purpose, and a deeper understanding of life.But somewhere along the way, as I shaped my values, I had absorbed some seriously flawed beliefs. I saw the pursuit of money as a necessary evil and equated financial ambition with greed.

“The New York Times Reruns Familiar ADHD Tropes”

The following is a professional commentary that reflects the opinions and experiences of its author.April 16, 2025Every few years, the ADHD community must endure another skeptic – an author, a journalist, a contrarian mental health provider, quite frequently a chiropractor – recycling claims like “ADHD is overdiagnosed,” “stimulants don’t work,” or, most remarkably in one case, “ADHD does not exist.”In every instance, including Paul Tough’s recent New York Times Magazine feature, the articles serve only to obfuscate the conversation about ADHD because:Invariably, in such analyses, clients of ADHD services are portrayed as hapless dupes of a psychiatric industrial complex hellbent on profiting from a made-up affliction that is really just the same thing that everyone else experiences but somehow handles quite nobly and with aplomb. In reality, almost no one seeking help for ADHD feels hoodwinked.

The Role of Nutrition in Managing Stress

Nutrition plays a crucial role in managing stress levels. The food we consume directly impacts our body’s ability to cope with stress. For instance, consuming a diet high in processed foods, refined sugars, and unhealthy fats can lead to increased levels of stress. These foods can cause fluctuations in blood sugar levels, leading to irritability and mood swings. On the other hand, a diet rich in whole foods, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins provides the necessary nutrients to support the body during times of stress. Nutrients such as B vitamins, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to have a positive impact on stress levels by supporting the nervous system and reducing inflammation. Furthermore, poor nutrition can also lead to imbalances in neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, which are essential for regulating mood and stress response. Therefore, understanding the impact of nutrition on stress levels is crucial for developing effective strategies to manage and reduce stress.
