I am suffering from mental health and trying to social isolation, but this is cause my depression and anxiety to increase.
There is also evidence that says it take a long time for people with mental health conditions to get use to new routes.
As the government are moving so fast this cause this group of people a lot more stress. Which will increase the pressure on the NHS and possibly a increase in the amount of suicide.
There is also people with other disabilities that will be affected.
