[QUOTE="Pinch, post: 1566751, member: 2881"] Don't give up John. As you can see, there's a lot of people on here who have been in a very similar state of affairs at one point or another. Since the beginning of the Covid saga, I lost a massive amount of what kept me happy. I also lost my father back in August. Nothing has been easy. Stay away from extreme thinking. You've gotta accept where you're at and take it day by day. Whenever you start thinking something like "I'm screwed, it's all over, I screwed up, they screwed up, the world is psychotic and terrible, I can't, I'm sick, I'll never blah blah blah" STOP immediately. You have to become aware of this thinking and see it for what it really is. We see what we believe. Have some compassion for yourself and the world. Easier said than done and it's something I struggle with from time to time and even more so when I'm depressed. [B]Stop reading about Covid and choose to believe otherwise.[/B] Covid and all of the nonsense associated with it is failing. I know you're in Canada and I've heard it's absolutely bonkers over there with the Covid theatrics but do your best to accept it and understand it doesn't define you and can't change what you will or won't accomplish in life.
