Has anyone else found this time really hard for them? I’m not to much of a social person. But I do like to hang out with my roommates and go out for walks regularly throughout the city. With this virus I had to move back home with my mom. I have not talked to anyone in person besides her for about two weeks. I am alone with my thoughts and my mental health is decreasing. I’m constantly crying myself to sleep again, just like in high school. I keep telling myself it’s going to get better and one day I’ll wake up and want to be alive. I’ve had depression for many years and every time I bring up to my family that I’m in pain I get a “ ya right. Whatever “ Like no one takes me seriously. The only reason I’m alive is because I would never want them to feel the pain of losing someone. But can anyone tell me if eventually it does get better?

Just know you are not alone in this and everything will fall into place sometime, think positive thoughts, recite a mantra that will get you in a good mood. I have started doing yoga and I feel like it gets me through the day, maybe you can do it too. Sometimes I do cry myself to sleep but I know I will get through this. Am not worthless
Hello,
During the first week of social distancing, I got scared and worried. I was worried about what if someone from my family becomes sick. My son and I have asthma and it’s risky for us to be infected by the virus. I have plenty of worries and because I am too informed about the virus, it made me so scared. I prayed, I cried in my prayers, I did not stop praying until I experienced God’s peace.
I hope all of us will remain positive and expect good things to happen. Praying for you for peace and will remain strong. Keep posting. You are not alone. We are all here to uplift one another. Stay safe. God bless.
