I was busy today with domestic stuff. Went bike riding and one area that I go to was closed off. That was a surprise. My sister called and I had not heard from her in a while. She only talked for three minutes. It's unusual for her to not talk much when she calls. She wanted to know how I was doing but didn't seem comfortable to talk about herself. That's unusual, too. Maybe something's up!

It’s probably time to get a therapist.

I am completely alone.

Awaiting the next hammer to drop on the ongoing crisis. I would guess home confinement and prohibition on coming to work.

I need my ISP to come over and fix things at home, or I'll be cut off. As would be expected, they can't at this point. All Internet cafes, libraries, and other places with WiFi are shut down, so I may be SOL.

I feel OK (strangely enough in these corona times). I had an early morning walk in a park, windy, was almost blown down. I had to rest when I was home again. The fight with the wind had been so hard.


I have cancelled my vaccation in July. I had looked very much forward to it, but since everything is turned up side down after the spread of the Covid-19, I feel relief.


This day I am in some sort of fighting spirit: "We shall overcome this!"

I am so sorry that you are feeling down! Hope you feel better soon. We are all in this corona crisis together. Everything becomes harder to cope with!

When you wake up and are eating your breakfast, please remember that this is a time when we have to fight harder than usual. So it is for all of us. Try the STOPP technique".

STOPP skill

How much tired are you? If very tired, please make a shedule for the day that is easy to overcome. If you feel OK (enough) make a harder plan to make yourself buzy.


Please don't self-blame! Only consentrate on making it through the crisis one day at the time!

Please don't do that. We'll all get through this together. Is there unemployment payments in your area?

The feeling of fear, anxiety and sadness can create that feeling. You will get through this crisis. We all will! Please do something to care for yourself that is free, like watching/working out to a YouTube video. Kickboxing may be helpful to get the frustration out. We are here for you. If you need anything that I can help with feel free to pm me.

A little down tonight I am just hunkered down at home for now. There is a shelter in place order where I live. I've been doing a lot of journaling and listening to music. I sleep most days and am up most nights. Thanks to a 3rd shift job I had years ago. I was supposed to see my pdoc on Thursday but that will probably be cancelled or done by phone. I hope that it's done by phone. I really need to tell her about my anger going up. Now that I think about it I haven't gotten a confirmation text saying about my appointment. I bet it's cancelled. Darn this virus. I hope that this doesn't last through summer. That would really stink. Now to go turn on prime for a distraction from all this virus crap. Good night all.

Just taking it one day at a time. I try to find ways to lift my spirits & motivation. I think about all of you, wishing the best for you, even when I can't post. Hang in there everybody.

I'm trying to ignore how I feel. Which really isn't good as it gives more problems when I ignore what I feel. I have been procrastinating my studies. HMMM let's think about it.... I don't know what I am doing and it is leading to behaviors of I don't want to think about it. But things are going to be due soon. I need to get off my butt and do something.

I'm OK, but tired. A bit procrasttiation with the home work, but have used a large amount of time to keep myself updated about the corona virus. The weather is bad. Hope it will be possible to take a walk outside (with appropriate distance to others) tomorrow.

I am majorly struggling. I can't get myself to do anything. I'm frozen in fear! Yet I can type. I don't know what would help so I haven't done me anything! All day I have been struggling. Anxiety is high and depression is well I don't know how to put it. I feel as if I should call t but I don't know what to say to the triage people.

Home confinement is here starting tomorrow night, so we are locked down for at least a couple of weeks.

This was a good time for home Internet to fail me and require equipment that should be here in "3 to 5 days." I wonder what this means in the current situation.

I'm feeling okay today.

today was meant to be the day I had a meeting to discuss my mental health care (what's working and what isn't), and despite me really needing the meeting,
I'm sort of glad it's not happening- means I can stay home snug and warm and watch tv which is exactly what I am doing
