i’ve never been very good at explaining how i’m feeling without making inappropriate jokes but here goes, about two weeks ago i finally got up the nerve to reach out to psychiatrists and was going to set up my first appointment. this was huge for me since the past two years i’ve let my mental and physical health go in order to work hard and get my degree. i finally saw a light at the end of the tunnel and then the tunnel collapsed. i have never felt this indifferent about living and don’t know how to snap out of it without any of my coping mechanisms (that corona took away). i find comfort in socializing and being with friends but now all i can do is sit with my thoughts and think about everything that was taken away (job, school, graduation festivities). i have genuinely nothing to look forward to anymore. help.

hi we all miss our freedom our situation gives us valuable time to reflect on the rights and wrongs we may have done.take the precious time to think about the future and the great things you can still do.

Were you able to get in touch with any therapists or psychiatrists? A lot of places are still seeing clients, they just do sessions over the phone right now.

I think it’s worth keeping up the pursuit of finding someone to help you with this, especially during this pandemic. Supports like this app are good and all, but having a professional on your side is super important in recovery.

I am so sorry that the virus is stealing this part of your life. I remember my senior year of high school and the dreams I had for spring semester. College was much more boring.

Can you recreate some of the hang out time with group video chats? Start a game that can be played across the screen.

Your degree will come. I hope they do some sort of graduation celebration for you.

Use this time to create your LinkedIn and resume and research jobs. Get all that stuff out of the way so when the door opens, you are running ahead of everyone else.

Chin up. It gets better. Stay safe.
