"I'm feeling anxious because at this point, it can only get worse."

Camilla Keyte has been shielding since the beginning of lockdown - her only physical contact was one hug with her mother through a shower curtain in February.

Camilla says the pandemic has made her feel helpless, purposeless, and useless.

And she's far from alone.

Thousands of people from across the UK have reported feeling depressed and anxious because of COVID-19 and experts warn a mental health crisis is imminent.

On this episode of the Sky News Daily Podcast, host Sophy Ridge speaks to Sky's home editor Jason Farrell, who has been travelling around the UK ahead of Mental Health Day, to assess the psychological impact the pandemic has had.

Joining them is Marjorie Wallace from mental health charity SANE to talk about how people feeling low can access help.

Plus, Camilla tells her first-hand story of battling deteriorating mental health during the pandemic.
