What do you feel the pandemic has taken from you? (1 Viewer)

[LeeriaYa]

Hello,Hello. Another topic till a week till I deactivate. Which MEANS another topic

I was picked as a mentor of a group for individuals. No, I’m not a teacher. We’re picked due to being older and helping individuals who have felt that the pandemic has taken a large portion of their life from them since some of these clients are actually going on 21 from 18, or 19. We’re picked due to we handled the pandemic in strides. I’ve even They also have extreme forms of depressive, and have attempted due to this exact reason.
There is no age to learning life lessons, and truly there is no exact age to figure things out. I just turned 26 a week, and I’m still unsure of what I want my degree to switch to. Many expectations, and ideal ages of lessons people think they are unlock are not even something as a set standard. It’s what people believe the standard should be.

It amazes when you talk to them and realize their environment is precisely the reason why they feel like they have a clock on their life. We do, but not for lessons.

Anyway,Anyhow.
What is something you feel the pandemic has made more difficult for you? What is a lesson you learned?


​

I learned I am still purely an introvert, but to be more understanding to relationships such as friendships. So I try to reach out and talk to the ones I feel don’t do so well in these times. The pandemic has taken socializing away due to I can’t hang out with IRL’s. So I reach out to all my friends now with voice chats, voice memo’s, texting, and face timing.

I’m sorry. It is better being independent. I had to be surrounded with family alot, too. I hope you can regain living by yourself again by the end of all this, or when it’s stabilized. Good luck

I’m sorry, LovelyLight. I hope your heart will heal and remember the good times. I lost my great grandmother last year of February and it still stings. I hope you can have your trip around Europe when things begin to go under better control. You deserve it and many more good things. I wish you luck in all you do Juni

Then I really wish you luck. Sometimes we need to be around ourselves more to feel the comfort. I hope you can go back to school in person classes.

this is going to make me sound like an overprivileged brat but honestly nothing. i hate online school ever since it's a thing but i don't feel like the pandemic has taken anything away from me since now that i'm fully vaccinated i can do everything i used to before that, i only have to wear a mask on my face.

rather than taken which it has but I'm fortunate enough not to have experienced as much as other people, I feel it's also given me a lot and helped me draw many conclusions about people and myself in the time I had to contemplate and reflect. I am also an introvert but the first year of isolation was honestly so terrible because I do still love talking to and being around people, having basic interaction provided it's a positive environment, and I'm so grateful to have had it online at least despite the lockdowns <3

May you seen get a chance to travel again. And have your joy flourish. Things are hard, and I understand the world offers places that we may find comfort and gaze in. I hope you can receive both of those when things become under more control. I hope you get a chance because a smile from you when it happens will be worth many things.

That’s the same for me. I vaccinated because I worked around many elders and needed to for my grandmother. Online school can be difficult and I guess I’ve always enjoyed it because I’m used to being more kept to myself. I’m glad you feel it’s taken nothing from you and there’s nothing wrong with that. You’re still practicing safety and caring for others safety so that’s what’s really important. I wish you luck in many things

I’m glad it’s worked out for you. That’s the same reason I was picked as a mentor for that focus group. I took the pandemic in very easily, and was already practicing safe guidelines. Online still can work just as well, and it’s helped immensely in my growth as a person. I hope it continues to do well and it seems you’re taking it in greatly and leaving positive impacts in it’s wake. I wish you luck in it’s future.

keeping it rather light- the force to crawl out from my dark dark pit of a cave & socialize with others

Socializing is hard and many of us find comfort in the dark. I do, too. I’m not even as social able in real life. Just online so I can relate. I hope when things become under control. You can return to your cave, and socialize when you really want to. I wish you luck.

Ahh, you are so nice, thank you so much. Tbh, I have nothing to complain about, I was lucky to visit Greece last year and Italy in 2020, but usually, I target way further places. Like, me and my friend planned to go back to Asia in 2019 and we still can't. (I live in Europe.) Traveling is my resource of emptying my mind, leave all my problems behind, only live for myself and living in the moment. I'm like a new person after a trip.

My confidence

Confidence can come in anytime, and I’m sure you’ll find your way back to it even during these stressful times Whenever you feel that you aren’t as confident. Sometimes saying something you like about yourself to yourself, or the mirror helps. Even writing little notes to yourself. I do that and it’s helped me with confidence during the Pandemic. Sometimes the best hype man we need is ourselves.
