Covid-19

I want to start by start by remembering all who have died from this terrible virus and all who are sick and struggling. And also their families, and all our essential workers. My family and I are fortunate in that we have a homes, enough food, work from home jobs and our health. But sheltering in place is still such a change from regular life. I feel as if it makes mental health issues worse, for sure. I just feel sad all the time. I like looking forward to things, and there isn't much right now. I know it will get better, but it feels hard right now. I think it really hit me this week with schools closed until the end of the year, that graduation is cancelled. Maybe there will be something in August,but the whole thing has hit me hard. I am trying to be hopeful, but many days that is hard. Are others feeling like this?
