Abstract

Introduction: Cabin fever is described as some combination of irritability, moodiness, and depression due to isolation during COVID-19. Cabin fever may happen to anyone who has to isolate themself at home because of the COVID-19 outbreak. We aim to identify the risk factor, the influence of hormone imbalance on mood changes, and how to deal with cabin fever during isolation due to COVID-19. People who are unable to connect with other people physically, unable to do activities that they used to do, unmotivated due to having no work, and anxious about finances due to lack of income may have a higher risk of cabin fever. Review: Social isolation experienced by people with cabin fever may result in hormonal imbalances that eventually affect their mood. This is due to the stress that comes from prolonged stay-at-home orders, which are thought to disturb the balance of the hormones in a person’s body. Hormones which are able to cause mood changes are cortisol, thyroid, testosterone, estradiol, and progesterone. Cabin fever is not a recognized psychological condition. In this way, there is no standard treatment for cabin fever. Conclusion: Therefore, acceptance, reconciliation with oneself, coexistence and trust (intimate interactions, mindfulness, and positive self-shaping as self-control) are keys to overcome cabin fever.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop and evaluate a therapeutic serious game integrating play therapy principles to improve emotional well-being, enhance coping skills, and reduce bullying-related distress among school-aged children. While prior research has focused on preventive serious games, interventions addressing the therapeutic needs of bullying victims remain limited. A randomized pretest–posttest experimental design was employed with 60 participants (aged 10–14 years) from two schools in Makassar, Indonesia. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 30) receiving the therapeutic serious game over four weeks or a control group (n = 30) receiving routine school support. Measures included the Bullying Victimization Scale, Emotional Well-Being Questionnaire, and Coping Skills Inventory for Children. Statistical analyses included paired-sample t-tests, independent t-tests, and ANCOVA to compare pre-post changes and between-group differences. The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in emotional well-being (Δ = +15.6, p < 0.001), enhanced coping strategies (Δ = +13.2, p < 0.001), and reduced bullying-related distress (Δ = -15.5, p < 0.001) compared to the control group. Effect sizes were large, indicating strong therapeutic impact. The control group showed negligible changes. The findings confirm that therapeutic serious games can effectively support victims of verbal and non-verbal bullying by combining emotional expression, skill rehearsal, and scenario-based practice in an engaging digital format. This approach provides a scalable and evidence-based alternative to traditional play therapy, with potential integration into school counseling programs. Future research should examine long-term effects and cross-cultural adaptations.
