Why I love covid
I didn't realize how severe my anxiety had become until covid 19. I've made myself comfortable by isolating from every body including friends. Then when covid began and social distancing was necessary it became apparent how bad my anxiety had taken over. Many are struggling with social distancing and mask wearing, my life did not change because I had been social distancing for a decade. I've mentally boycotted every "toxic" social interaction without even realizing it and soon I simply discounted every interaction as unnecessary. I prefer and even feel more comfortable in public wearing the face mask because it makes me feel invisible. As my identity is hidden from acquaintances that might recognize and interact with me. I am aware of how unhealthy it is, but it's an addiction. Nobody should feel relieved that there is a virus wiping out the world, but because of the safety precautions you feel more comfortable in society.

On the upside, a lot of people are more comfortable with the idea of working at home now that it has proven possible.
I was really hoping that this would prove to the world we don’t need to be doing a whole lot. That there’s nothing wrong with people not coming and going places on a dime. That we don’t need the cars, instant/far travel, or socialization. Everyone else sees the state and just thinks “This is temporary and not normal”
😅 So. I’m going to try and enjoy the parts that I like. My fam helps people out, too though. Sister sews masks, we gave a pizza guy TP on request a few times instead of tips, little things.
