UNPRESCENTED TIMES

THERES SO MUCH TO OVERCOME. Covid-19 has had an impact on our lives and those we love. You have been impacted by job loss or experienced a significant decrease in salary. You’ve been quarantined in your home and feel like the walls are caving in on you. You miss physical touch, have experienced loss, or just wish you had something to look forward to. How do you handle this plethora of feelings and emotions?

YOUR ATTITUDE IS A CHOICE

Depending on your current state, you may be your own worst enemy.

It’s essential to identify if you are self-sabotaging your own happiness. The one thing you can control is your mindset.

CHOOSING APPRECIATION

You have to make a choice each day. You chose to get out of bed, you chose to take a shower, and you have to choose to appreciate another day of life.

ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR FEELINGS

We all cope with crisis in different ways. Maybe you need that extra attention, a little extra boost.

Social distancing can make you feel more alone and isolated. The uncertain times can heighten your feelings.

LEAN ON OTHERS

Reach out to a healthcare provider, family member, friend, teacher, faith leader, or any trusted individual. Ensure it’s someone that lets you express yourself, listens to you, and shares with you.

They should respect you, practice confidentiality, have your best interest in mind, and work with you to figure out next steps. There is no shame in requesting and accepting assistance.

BE GOOD TO OTHERS If you are in a positive state of mind, take the time to check up on others. Sift through your contacts and think about those you haven’t heard from in a while. Send a text, letter, email, or better yet, make a call. Never underestimate the power of being present.
