Abstract

Nowadays, Covid-19 prevention and control measures have a large effect on society. In this social context, some young people are experiencing various degrees of physical and psychological problems, which prompts them to seek things that can provide them with health and psychological comfort. In today’s era of developed social media, wellness has become the object they seek and promote. Considering the removal of Covid-19 prevention and control measures in China, as well as the psychological state of contemporary young people, this article explores the psychological state of young people during and after the pandemic, as well as their level of attention towards health preservation. The paper collects and analyzes comments with relevant tags from multiple platforms and discusses the psychological state of young people and their attention toward health preservation before and after the end of pandemic prevention and control measures. After preliminary data analysis, this paper manually annotated the data to train a neural network for text classification. The research results show that young people displayed psychological problems on social media before and after the pandemic, and their attention to health preservation remained high.
