Background: Amidst several crises arising due to an entirely empirical threat of global nature, the pandemic of Covid-19; one which proved to be extraordinarily difficult to deal, with was the declining mental status of the healthcare workers (HCWs). There has been an increasing need for interventions to be made in order to combat this dilemma.Methodology: A secondary analysis was conducted to assess the impact of various coping strategies among frontline health care workers on their negative feelings and emotions working in a tertiary care hospital. An analysis was conducted using Linear regression firstly by univariate analysis. In final model for multivariable analysis, variable significant in first step were used. Assumptions of normality of data and Homoscedasticity were assessed also after multivariable analysis.Results: A total of 202 individuals participated in the survey. In a multivariable analysis, sharing feelings with friends and family (95% CI: 0.51-2.99) and seeking psychological help 1.76 (95% CI: 0.16-3.36) was significantly associated with positive feelings.Conclusion: Healthcare workers and the front liners, who, albeit of the risk associated with being around the patients of an unknown disease faced the challenge head on, ultimately found themselves drained of the mental stamina to deal with the effects.Funding: None.Declaration of Interests: The authors declare no conflict of Interest.Patient Informed Consent Statement: Verbal informed consent was obtained from all participants as well as participants consented for the results to be published before the commencement of the survey.
