To be honest, not so great.

I live alone, in a tiny apartment. Usually that's not a huge issue since I live not too far from a beautiful beach and mountains.

But being stuck inside (i live in France) I'm starting to relapse into depression. I have a lot of anxiety about being alone, about the possibility that I will be potentially let-go. About suicidal thoughts etc..

I was doing better, but last week set me back by a lot. I'm scared I will not survive this situation if it lasts for months.

Hang in there brother. I live in Spain and we are all scared. In my job there are people suffering from anxiety and stress because of this situation.

Try to establish a routine. Exercise and opening the blinds is helping me to cope with isolation.

Also, limit your news consumption. Newspapers and other mass-media lives on the fears of consumers.

Do you have anyone to speak with about this?
