Me again!

Need to vent - given the whole UK is near enough on lock down now, I've been forced to work from home and not go into the office.

I'm not sure how I can cope.

Going to work was the only thing in this whole messed up scenario where I had a sense of normaility. The only place where I could go where I could "pretend" everything was ok. The only place I could go to escae what is going on. The only place where I could forget the crap that is happenig at home.

It's the only true constant that I've had through this whole challenge.

And now, that has gone. My only social interaction with real human beings has now gone. I really don't know how I am going to cope.

Add to that the stress of knowing that this whole covid-19 pandemic is probably going to delay things even more with the case. It's all just really shit.

Everything that I have looked forward to as a "break" from this horrible situation is being cancelled due to corona. I have nothing left to look forard to this year and am starting to really struggle. I'm not sure how long I can keep going - I can't even go see the doctor as they've suspended all face to face appointments!

What do I do?
