Hey @Andrea-RO, I’ve been a bit off because I was very unproductive today but yeah that has helped when I’ve done it. Although cleaning has sometimes made me very frustrated because I keep finding more stuff to get rid of so now it’s all just sitting in piles everywhere waiting for me to be able to donate it.

Heh @liv1611, what you say is reassuring but yeah at the moment it really sucks. We’ve been trying to dedicate specific times to connect over video call and other things so that it still allows us to do our work but so far we have just been on it all the time and have kind of been avoiding the work. ❤️

Yeah representation really matters. I’m feeling fine generally but in terms of the self isolation it hasn’t been great. I haven’t found a job yet but given the current climate surrounding corona my parents are not pressuring me to get one now. I was trying to find time to spend with my girlfriend but now that uni has moved online and guidelines are becoming more restrictive I can’t leave the house anymore and we can only video call, if anything. I’ve been doing some art and cleaning however I should be doing uni work.

I’ve been feeling okay. I’ve organised some meetups with my girlfriend previously but with restrictions becoming more strict a lot of our planned meetups and events have been cancelled and I am not able to leave the house anymore. Which is unfortunate because we used to be able to get through it easier knowing we’d see each other soon or having something in the near future to look forward to and now I’m just struggling with REALLY missing each other but not being able to do anything about it.
My girlfriend and I haven’t previously been big on face chatting but in the past two days we’ve been using zoom but I’m still quite sad I can’t physically hug her or anything. I get very upset about it at random periods during the day and night now though because I don’t know when I’m going to be able to see her again.
Actually a lot of our conversations are different over call and text than in person and lately it has turned into a lot of discussing that we miss each other. I’m starting to think it’s not healthy, particularly given it increase motivation to be productive because I can’t go out and see her, but now I don’t really know what else to say because all I want to do is be with her.

Also realising how little I’ll be able to see my girlfriend because we’d made plans to meet up in between our classes and whenever we can because we won’t be too far away from each other but now it’s going to be a lot harder, for us but also just generally to be social at all.

So I just started my first year of uni and we had only had 1 week before classes were suspended due to health concerns with the coronavirus situation becoming more extreme. In the first week of classes, only 2 of my subjects were running and they were just foundation subjects that everyone from the faculty has to do so I haven’t met anyone from my course, or really anyone for that matter. I knew it was going to happen at some point but now that I’ve officially been told that classes are completely moving online I can’t help but feel really bummed that I won’t get the chance to participate in the same way you do in a face to face scenario. I’m not really a social person at all but now I feel pretty upset that I won’t be having the same experience most undergraduates have in their first semester

I’m not actually in quarantine but my university has suspended classes for a week while they transition to online classes. I have no work to do because we aren’t far enough into the semester but all my friends, who are at different unis, are continuing to have classes whether that’s online or face to face still so I’m basically just sitting around at home alone. But it’s fine. My girlfriend and I have been trying to do things together so that we don’t go insane but don’t put ourselves or others at risk. I feel like a lot of people would benefit from any suggestions you have on getting through this craziness. Good to hear that you’re also feeling fine.🙂

The name is actually a Pokémon. I’m okay but isolation at the moment is slowly driving me insane particularly while I wait for my classes to resume but online. How are you?

I hadn’t seen that thread. Thank you!
Well of course with the internet we can still stay connected and up to date, particularly with video chat, etc and there are plenty of things to get involved with from home but it still limits the humanity of the interaction.
Thus far I haven’t had any ideas that allow my friends and I to properly stay connected in a way that doesn’t alarm their parents or make them concerned they are not focused on their studies. A big part of university is the social element, and being on campus allows for that interaction without constant watch from family or whoever you are living with. But with courses being moved online it eliminates that freedom and ability to distance yourself from constant monitoring of your social activities, even if you are avoiding public areas, etc.
Really my only idea for being able to meet up with people is the fact I can drive myself places, however my thoughts are more with the fact that a lot of my friends are limited to how much they can go out because to their parents it’s seems like they are taking their studies less seriously as they can see their social habits more first hand, if that makes sense.
Or I could just slightly be going insane because the only people around me really at the moment are my family, and although I’m not usually a very social person, there’s definitely a difference between not going outside because you don’t want to and not going out because you can’t or it is ill-advised.

So we all know what’s happening with the COVID-19 pandemic and despite the measures being taken to prevent the spread of the virus, with the conditions becoming worse and large gatherings being banned are there any ways for us to still socialise like normal humans?
With things like universities being postponed temporarily and moved online a lot of us who normally hang out in these public areas and study together, etc, are now just being isolated to work from home and no longer get to experience anything or socialise like normal. This isn’t coming from a very social person, quite the opposite, but everyone gets lonely and longs for the normal interactions with their loved one but now our opportunities to do so are much more limited.
Even just trying to meet up with your s/o is incredibly difficult (particularly when you’re not out yet) without a real reason to see them.
I dunno, just wondering if anyone has any ideas of how to get through these times without going insane on your own and the only thing to do is work on stuff by yourself from home.

I don’t think I’ve ever considered the hatred for a number. Why do you hate 6? Ive always seemed to have a weird attachment for the number 47 for some reason. Question - what fictional world or place would you most like to visit?

Yeah I’m struggling with missing her because she’s doing a lot while I’m still waiting to start and there’s nothing to do really. It’s been giving me a lot of time to overthink how unproductive and unsuccessful I feel. I appreciate the support from this community and may look at talking to a counsellor. I used to dance but not since high school but on occasion I like making films.

The uni semester is starting for my girlfriend and I but I start two weeks later than her so recently she’s been so busy and I just kinda sit here missing her, without anyone to anything with because all our other friends are also all busy with uni. I’ve also been struggling to find a job while she’s been getting all these opportunities that take up even more of her time. Obviously I want to be getting these opportunities but I just miss having her around, especially when I have nothing to do at the moment. Lately I’ve been balling my eyes (like all day now) out every time I have even the mere thought of not being able to see her but when I’m with her or know I’m going to be soon I feel okay but she doesn’t always tell me about things she’s doing and then I feel like I’ve been anticipating something for so long only to be crushed. I want to talk to someone about it but neither of us have come out and no one knows we’re together. I love her to bits and in no way want to lose her but I don’t know how I’m feeling right now and don’t want to say or do something I regret
