Quarantine makes everything harder because you can't escape from anywhere. I don't know the rules and regulations for you but i think it adds a lot more anxiety and tension to everyone when you have to live in such a shared space. I don't want you to think that you don't have a way out, because things change and one day it'll be different. |
I thank you for your words of hope. It's difficult to be optimistic when life is so difficult, especially now. My mental health is really suffering right now, even though I'm doing more to manage it, like yoga, eating well, seeing a therapist and taking my medication. I've changed my mind and think I will stay where I am for now, since my goal is to get a van to modify for living, and not to get another apartment. There's no way I could save for a van if I'm paying for an apartment and living on my own.
Thanks for the compassion. It means a lot.
