Coronavirus aka COVID-19 currently has half the world on lockdown. Being ordered to shelter in place may not be so bad for those confined with loved ones. But what about singles who are riding out the pandemic solo? Being stuck inside without any social life or physical interactions can be taxing on anyone’s mental health so it’s important for those who are in isolation alone to intentionally manage their mental state.
For those who are struggling right now, I want you to know that that’s okay and even… normal. Everyone needs to feel safe and to be touched and loved. Those of you who are finding it difficult to navigate this without those needs being met are having very valid and common feelings. But nobody is in this truly alone as we are all working collectively for the health of our society. If you need someone to talk to without judgment, please feel free to contact me.
