P A N I C

All of us are trying to make light of the situation. But it's definitely not a joke.

We made plans to accomplish certain goals in a few months, now all of that has abruptly come to a halt. Staying stuck at home with fear looming over you doesn't feel great.

I sit at home and sometimes reminisce of all the little things I could do without having to think twice, like going for a walk, making spontaneous plans on a weekend to meet someone or watch a movie, ordering food from out,etc. But with times like these now I've got to decide whether I really need to step out even to buy groceries. I'm scared to just casually touch my face or rub my eyes.

People suggest spending time doing your favourite hobbies to take your mind off things, that helps for a bit then soon you reach a point of saturation. The only good thing that has come out of this period is getting in touch with people I didn't speak to much when I was busy. I've realized I'm not alone in this and that this too shall pass.

We can't get together in one place to fight this, but we can definitely stay away from each other and come out victorious.
