Stay Strong! Stay Healthy! Practice social distancing! You see these billboards as you drive along the freeway. For some people reading them, they may feel upset because they serve as a reminder of worrying about the uncertainty of their future. During this time of shelter-in-place, it is typical for most people who live along to struggle during these times of social distancing. Here are some ways to cope:
Join some outdoor adventures that are offered on airbnb.com or meetups.
Practice a hobby with others on a virtual meeting
Get creative and join a virtual meeting on how to draw or paint
Sign up for online exercise classes
Gather friends to have a zoom meeting over dinner.
If some of these coping skills seem beyond your reach, please feel free to seek professional help to deal and manage your loneliness before your symptoms get too much to handle.
