Lockdown blues?
It's only been a week out of the usual school system and not going outside and socialising but it is having an impact. I feel very purposeless in general, though there are many points throughout the day were I feel great. It's the inbetween times.
So I have schoolwork, chores, projects and playing & talking with family. When doing any those 4 things I feel happy, it's the inbetween time. The issue is that though I will feel happy during the period there is still a lot of uncertainty as to what I should be doing currently. The issue is the change in setting when doing schoolwork, I am not as focused. My schoolwork takes longer than it normally would because I keep jumping between activities and it talks awhile to get in the mood given the setting of doing it in my house. This means that I feel more drained and thus chores feel more arduous and the reduction in time from ineffecient multitasking makes me feel awful that I am not spending time with my family.
Hopefully, I will slowly get used to the new setting, the improvement to avoiding distractions and returning to a school like structure should help this. But a major issue is the weight of this lockdown. I don't generally go out and meet a load of friends, but I usually do activities over the weekends, go meet relatives during the week and meet friends at school. But now that face to face is gone I guess that's putting me down.
Anyway not feeling terrible the whole time, it just comes back in the quite moments.
