DEALING with CORONA VIRUS

         We're living in very trying and difficult times and things don't seem to be gettting any easier.  Sometimes life can seem terribly painful and unfair, yet somehow we manage to struggle on , day after day, hoping and praying that things will soon get better.

         Millions of people are in record levels of debt. Many are losing their jobs, their homes, their health  and sometimes sanity. Millions of people were left confined after the introduction of surprise quarantine measures  that have causes chaos in the capital, imposed sweeping restrictions in response  to a recent wave of corona virus cases. With our current situation and the state of global economy, there is a much lower chance of landing a new job anytime soon. And it's unclear when social distancing measures will end or what shape the economy will be in when you are able to return to work . Add in the fear of getting sick,  the inability to leave home and you've got a recipe for an increased risk  of mental health issues, and educate your children.

Here are several reasons why not having a job can take serious toll on your psychological well-being:

• Reduced social interaction

  - Not having a job  can mean less social interaction, which takes a direct toll on mood and well-being.

• Difficulty paying for basic necessities

  - Reduced income makes it difficult to purchase food and pay for housing and other bills

• Unhealthy coping skills may be more tempting             

    -While some people may respond  to unemployment by cutting things that cost extra , others turn to unhealthy coping skills like alcohol and drugs, which can take a toll on health and well-being.

Take control of the things you can control,  focus on the aspects of your daily routine that you can still follow or create a new routine that suits your current situation, find new routines that make you happy, "Exploit the positive opportunities".
