Quarantine is taking a toll on me!!

In first few months after lockdown, I was dealing with it pretty good. I took several hobbies like started up painting again, hard core exercise and fitness and some online courses for knowledge. But I can't do it anymore. I feel like I have nothing to do despite the things I do. After waking up I feel like the time becomes somehow very still and it takes forever for me to get back to normal routine. I feel like running away from all of this corona shit and just be free. Sometimes I just wish I get the disease and die from it. And it has been soooooo continuously boring. I want to get out without a damn mask and just breathe freely without the fog forming on my glasses. I wanna go on rides and just feel the air without thinking that one of the corona buddy will go inside my lungs. I hope that next month there won't be a lockdown and I wake up to hear that they extend lockdown again and again. It's has been so frustrating, I get mood swings and anger for no reason. Then I cry like an idiot. I want every thing to be as it was like before. A CORONA FREE WORLD!!!!

Hello :-)

I am not sure if you are in the UK as they have lifted the lock down here even though still so many are apprehensive to go about life as normal

This has been a massive thing that has happened to the world and I know even people without anxiety/depression as well as those of us that suffer are all feeling the same as you so know you are not alone

You are not an idiot and let those emotions out , it can be good to have a good cry , I could cry all day , I feel like I am living in some kind of dream and want to wake up and it has all gone away

We will all come through this as difficult as it is , know there are people to talk to on these Communities to try and let you know you are not alone

It may take a while for life to go back to how it used to be and I think somehow we have to accept this and learn to adjust to anew kind of life , I know it is hard but you will :-)

Take Care x

Covid19 took the world by surprise, but it really seems as though you are struggling to cope. Don't go it alone, try and find a counselor that you can sit and talk with. Also, try volunteering. When you are volunteering you look past what you want for yourself and help others. Don't give up hope that someone will create a cure for Covid.
