Abstract
People suffering from severe mental illness (SMI) have a significant negative impact on their communities
as compared to the normal population. There are a variety of factors that contribute to the majority of
this excess mortality. It is reported in this paper on a study that was conducted to explore the impact on
mental health among psychiatric patients all over the world. We were able to determine the prevalence
rates as well as the factors that contributed to the elevated morbidity and mortality rates. There is
evidence that increased risk for the majority of physical diseases is caused by a combination of lifestyle
variables as well as treatment-specific risk factors. There is also adequate data to imply that people with
SMI are less likely than the general population to obtain normal levels of care for the majority of illnesses
than the general population. The current period of Covid 19 demonstrates the enormous amount of
mental stress experienced by health practitioners all across the world. A range of mental health disorders
are caused by the pandemic, which is particularly widespread among psychiatric patients due to the
unusual nature of the outbreak. Psychiatric patients are frequently affected by anxiety, depression,
burnout, insomnia, and other stress-related diseases, according to the American Academy of Family
Physicians (Freudenberger, H). It is the purpose of this study, as well as other low-resource countries, to
draw attention to the mental health aspects of the pandemic among psychiatric patients
