I've started to struggle as well. The loneliness, the being stuck inside, not getting a lot of sun, not being happy with my flat now I'm spending so much time here.

I don't think people who are trying to stay positive at home are doing nonsense. You have to keep living your life as much as you can and find a way to cope. As long as they are staying at home, they're still doing their part. You can't spend all your time thinking about all the people that are dying, it will drive you crazy and it's not going to help anyone. And maybe people who make the best out of staying at home will be less tempted to ignore the rules. The only thing that really bothers me are people constantly ignoring the rules, having corona parties, still visiting family over Easter.

It does sting, all those people enjoying their time at home. Because I'm jealous, but that's not their fault.
I hardly have anyone to talk to. No video calls with friends. No one checking in with me, just saying hi or asking how I'm doing.
Also don't really feel any solidarity in the neighbourhood. No singing from balconies

And yes, it's going to be a very long time before things go back to relatively normal. I know there are more important things right now but realising there might not be any concerts and festivals until at least after summer, maybe even next year..... not going to my happy place, not getting to hug some of my favourite people, that's hard. As is not knowing when I'll see my parents again and worrying about them.

Thanks for this!
