Abstract

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread and become more contagious, people have been staying home more frequently and facing various mental health challenges such as anxiety, fear, nervousness, and loneliness. Students, in particular, are using the internet heavily for their studies, while jobholders rely on it for their professional responsibilities. At the same time, internet use can serve as a coping mechanism to relieve mental distress.
