Let's talk about things (Covid-19)
5 years ago
I haven't talked a lot about it, mostly because it stresses me right out, but, I've been self-isolating since this thing was announced. My health is alright, but I don't want to risk getting sick anyway because even with people not having compromised systems, there have still been people dying from Covid-19 that have no prior health issues.
This doesn't just affect the people that are immune compromised, it affects everyone and with my stepmom having a bevy of issues herself, I've been calling her to check up on her and make sure she and my nephew are doing alright, they've barely left the house at all.
So, I've self-isolated in order to avoid this for as long as I can. I was terrified of leaving the house on Wednesday for my monthly shopping trip and frankly, if I had been able to get my groceries delivered, I would have done that but all the delivery and pick up slots were taken so I had to go into the store.
This whole thing has had my anxiety acting up and it's been hard to focus on things a lot so I've been a bit frantic, but I'm trying to push through this and just stay in contact with people over Discord and twitter.
I'm taking this stuff pretty seriously, and I hope everyone is staying safe too, please don't go outside unless you absolutely have to, and you needn't worry about your pets, they can't carry the virus or catch it! So just take care of yourselves and your feathered, furred, or scaled babies and give them all the love they deserve, they're probably ecstatic you're home and able to spoil them.
On a further note, I've been trying to game a little more and catch up on shows on Netflix which has helped a little to distract my mind from the crisis at hand, this stuff is terrifying, and I know a lot of people are scared, I've noticed staying away from the news and media helps a bit, so, that's another thing I've been doing as much as I can.
