Venting locked down

[Moonbounce]

When all of the lockdowns first began I thought it would be good for me, personally. A good time to distance myself from all of the things that I thought were contributing to my depression and reassess my life and hobbies. But as the quarantines and bad news continues and only seems to get worse, I find the opposite effect taking hold. Knowing that there doesn't seem to be any end in sight to this makes it that much worse.

I keep seeing all of these news stories about "love in the time of the Coronavirus" as if it can actually happen just like that. Honestly it's killer because I couldn't find love in a normal world. But our world is set to change forever.

Same experience really. School had been really stressful and I am not very social anyway, so being at home seemed great. Now a lot of things in my life have been harmed by this and I hate that there is no end in sight.
