Corona-virus diary

[hugadoofy]

Hi, this is my first time really talking about this, and im not even sure if im depressed at all but I wanted to know others are also or possibly going through the same things as me. The following is a entry I made earlier today in my quarantine diary: Entry #1 (4/18/20): I’ve been feeling sadder as the days go by. We have been quarantining for a little over a month now and I have tried a bunch of things to keep myself occupied. I’ve learned how to grill, paint, sew, finish all homework for the semester, clean, cook, bake and exercise everyday etc. It’s hard to keep repeating myself to people that I’ve been sad and that this quarantine has been rough. I wish there is something I could do to make myself happy again. If this stay at home order goes longer the April 30th, I don’t know how I will make it through without taking the whole bottle of pills right next to my bed. I feel okay some parts of the day, but I feel so drained after. I just don’t know what to do anymore.

My family has a history with depression and I was determined that I wouldn't become like that. I am a very out-going person and it has been really hard not going to college or work or seeing people without them freaking out that they will get sick.

I think it's cool you have a designated diary! I think you are doing great. We are all trying our best I think. Good luck! BTW. I really want you to hang in there. It will pass and get better. That is the logical answer. I know it is boring a lot too. I love that I found this group because there are some really cool people here. I just joined recently but am so happy that I did. Hope this helped. There are some really cool classes on a website called Edx.org. And I like your name hugadoofy. It will pass.
