- The study examines how pre-existing mental disorders affected anxiety and depression levels during the COVID-19 pandemic using data from interviews conducted with a sample of 1942 participants in 2020 and 2021.
- Results show that anxiety increased in most groups except for those with mood disorders, while depressive symptoms rose primarily in individuals without mental disorders or with anxiety issues; greater resilience, improved social support, and lower stress were linked to better mental health outcomes.
- The research highlights that pre-existing mental health conditions influence symptoms during the pandemic and identifies social support, resilience, and stress management as crucial factors for mental well-being.
Aim: Crisis Resolution Teams (CRT) have shown positive clinical and service-use results in various countries but evidence in the south of Europe is scarce. The aim is to assess the impact of the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) in Spain with respect to the course of symptomatology and mental health services use in patients served.
Methods: Prospective observational cohort study.
