The isolation and lack of human contact during these last three weeks of lockdown have cause me to be severely depressed.I don't know how to come out of it and lift my moods.I wrote to my Member of Parliament complaining and telling lockdowns have to end sooner not later.I asked my doctor for counselling.I emailed the samaritans for support.I texted my sister she said it was good I actioned my feelings and reached out for support.She lent me money so I can get out go to food shop and get a takeaway coffee and sit on a bench and drink it,that might get rid of a few cobwebs.
I am going mad with the isolation hate it so much I need company and communication or I will lose the plot. Anyway if anyone has any tips on how to cope I'd love to hear them! |

Has it only been 3 weeks? It feels like so much longer. Then again, I was in tier 4 before Christmas. And before that I had covid and isolating. So that might be why either way, i totally relate to your feelings. This lockdown feels so much harder than the rest, maybe because it’s winter? Maybe because its the third and we’ve just had enough?
I have thrown myself into gaming, its been a life saver honestly. But i know that doesn't work for everyone. __________________ Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.

I try to reply on more places on this forum, like to keep more conversations going. But most days i dont talk to anybody either, i just stay in my apartment.
Are there tv shows you like, you might want to start or join a website on? Or other hobbies? I dont think the government can do much. Its up to us to keep ourselves safe. |

I might take up gaming it could be something I'd enjoy.The equipment can be expensive though but it is an option.
I did get out tuesday bought a takeaway coffee and a sandwich and ate it on the window ledge at M&S and did a food shop. I felt better after getting out.Had a few chat with the samaritans they were really supportivee. It's thursday today,I can go out again to the Post Office and to M&S for to do a food shop on Tuesday 2nd....so four more days to go for that. I am worried and anxious cos my body feel tired and I have a tender feeling down in my womb like before a period comes but I've been menopausal for 10 years so that can't be it and I feel upset that my womb cancer might have come back...they did say in 2019 that they thought I had cancer or precancerous cells but they lied about it in 2016 they said I needed a hysterectomy but an MRI scan showed I didn't have any cancer in my body so they lied. I don't think its cancer cos that would cause bleeding and I don't have bleeding.And part of me feels good if it is cancer and I die I won't have to suffer the pains of this life or my body anymore.I can rest hopefully in peace cos I've had the pains of mental and physical illnesses since I was aged 16 and I'm 57 this year in March.It's more likely to be hormonal changes cos I am losing weight and that might be affecting my hormones? Can't stand to have any more pain want to die quick and get it done.Not that I'm suicidal.But lockdown make me so low. Sorry to drone on.Thank you to those of you that read and reply.God bless you all I don't know what I'd do without you. |

So Sorry that you're struggling. Unfortunately lockdowns all around the world are putting a LOT of people in a tough spot so you're definitely not alone in this. i agree with the other wise and wonderful posters about finding as many distractions as you possibly can and reaching out to Loved Ones or your therapists/doctors or your social workers or your Friends or even here. Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @Marylin, your Family, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!
