April 2021. It’s been over a year since we’ve been dealing with COVID-19. Life was hard enough before we had a worldwide pandemic on our hands. But for over a year, it’s been even more limiting with social distancing and curbed interactions, partial to full lockdowns, and even curfews. Today our world is different.

It’s only normal that there’s psychological consequences. Throughout the year, I’ve noticed a lot of my friends dealing with anxiety and fatigue. The media is full of horrible and disappointing news. Getting through the winter was especially hard this year. Then there’s external stressors like work, school, and personal relationships—all these facets of life are all burdened by the strain of COVID-19.
