Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has placed front-line health care professionals—who were already at higher risk for negative effects of chronic stress before the pandemic—at even greater risk for depression and anxiety. This article reminds us of the importance of mutual support and caring for our own mental health, including seeking help from our mental health colleagues when needed.
