Methodology
I approached the patients through hospital. They were quarantine in the hospitals. I took sessions
online. I took sessions through video call. They were comfortable with me. They told me about
everything about themselves. How they are treated? What are the facilities in the hospitals? Are
they satisfy or not? Everything they told me through video call. The session lasted 30 minutes.
both of my patient show symptoms of anxiety. Then I recommend them some therapeutic
techniques to minimize the anxiety. I also got some information about them through their doctors
who were treated them. The session lasted about 25 minutes. I administered BAI on both of my
patients to assess the severity of anxiety.
Client 1
One of my patient got corona virus by her sister. She had few symptoms like lose of taste and
smell, headache, weakness, cough. She had these symptoms about for 2 weeks. She got positive
for corona virus she immediately quarantine herself in the hospital. She was treated there for
about two weeks. Doctors gave her medicine like surbex z, panadol, azomax and some fresh
juices. She got recovered after 2 weeks. After that she showed some symptoms of anxiety. I
recommend her some therapeutic techniques to minimize the anxiety.
Client 2
Another patient of my was male. He got affected from the bank. Symptoms appeared a few days
later. His symptoms include cough, high fever and breathing problem. He got admitted in
services hospital. He was treated there. His medicine include panadol, actemra injection and
fresh juices. He was still in the isolation because he was not recovered yet. He also showed some

Discussion
The purpose of the internship was to know are there any psychological issues in the covid-19
patients? As existing researches suggest that there are also some psychological issues in the
patients. Therefore this study further compare the patients how got recovered and who still
experiencing it. The sample of the internship comprised of two patients. One is female, she was
20 years old and one was male, he was 50 years old. of the patient who recovered from corona
virus had strong immune system that’s why she recovered quickly. Another reason was that she
also got only mild symptoms. When she found only one symptom she immediately started
treatment. After getting recovered she had some anxiety. I recommend her some therapeutic
techniques to minimize the anxiety. And these techniques helped her a lot to minimize her
anxiety. on the other hand, the second patient older than the first patient. He was 50 years old.
That’s why his immune system was not so strong to cope with the virus. Also he found out about
his condition when the symptoms got worse. Then immediately he got admitted to the hospital
where he was treated. After getting some treatment he only showed some improvement but not
fully recovered. He also showed symptoms of anxiety. I recommend him some therapeutic
techniques, which helped him a lot.
Consistent with the past research, the results of this internship reveal that people who got
affected by corona virus also showed some psychological issues.
