I think it could have been presented in a more childish and patronising way. Seriously I'm afraid I tilt more towards the view that such introspection is depressing, it's better just too get on with what you can. When it's talk of "exhaustion" "Burn out" and such inflammatory verbiage I think people must have forgotten what the words really mean. Sorry but self help recipes are for idiots who are beyond help but like to feel "special". It appears that the authors want everyone to concentrate on feeling as bad and self-pitying as possible. It's all or nothing, can't be a bit worn out and that's normal, or a bit worried about granny which is also normal, it has to be super stressed, depressed etc. Complete cobblers. I'll get my coat.
Hi @Gingerbus I understand that the post won’t be to everyone’s taste. Having had to deal with a number of close friends and family who suffer from serious mental health issues I’m firmly of the opinion that if it can help one person then it’s worth it.

Woah, not me mate, I've touched the bottom a few times but concentrating on it is just madness unless you're enjoying the self-pity. The only way is to look up, not down. For me it all comes under the general heading of "life sucks - suck it up". Just my opinion from scraping myself up off the floor a few times.
My attitude exactly. Covid? A rather pathetic pathogen. Just be bloody glad it's not ebola. Top tip. Stop listening to Radio 4: Pre 2020 - "Brexit, Brexit, Brexit, Doom, Doom, Brexit (repeat)" Post 2020 - "Covid, Covid, Covid, Doom, Doom, Covid (repeat)"
I'm the weirdo who never watches TV (maybe a footy or rugby international), never listens to the radio ever, don't read internet news, don't FB, twitter or any of that. The news feed on my phone consists of footballers wives, meteorites and celebrity come dancing gossip which I resist as it's meaningless to me. This site is as near as I get to news and it seems everyone who does partake in "news" has a different opinion - hence it's all rubbish we could well do without. We might then look around us and seek to repair out disjointed society.
We had some good advice from the company I work for. Forget what was normal, don't fret about what may or may not happen, just treat each day as it comes
On the bright side , we're not having bombs dropped on us every night,and there's plenty of toilet rolls in the shops
