So I wanted to share my expierience with depression and anxiety during the Covid 19 quarantine. So I have been struggling with depression and anciety my whole life and it is really important for me to have a structured day otherwise I just sink into my depression. But bow I can't go to school and I can't go outside or interact with people outside of my family. I realize that this is really important right now, but I also think that it is important that the consequences for people suffering from mental illness are diffrent from boredom. I have started noticing my days melting into my nights again. I sleep too much or too little. I feel lonley and I can't even go to Therapy. It's way too easy for me to sink back into bad habits that I fought my way out of. I struggle with the simplest things like sjowering. I know that sounds disgusting but sometimes I just can't get out of bed and since I can't leave the house nobody will notice anyways, but it is important for me. I was even struggling to receive my medication. Since I'm not allowed to leave the house I couldn't get my perscription from my psychiatris and he had to send it to me by mail. But I went three days without medication I need to live a healthy life. I just wanted to let others that are struggling like I am know that they are not alone and that I see them and that this will end and we will get better again.
