Man what makes you think we'll be social distancing for another two and a half years?

And what is this 100% mental illness vs. 5% physical illness coming from? Do you really believe those numbers?

[esotericn]

Yes, indefinite restrictions will mean that eventually everyone develops severe mental issues.

Change the 5% to whatever you like, it doesn't matter.

I can deal just fine with the current mainland Europe restrictions. I can see my girlfriend, I can meet friends in video chats (and I do, multiple times per week). I definitely would prefer to end this distancing as soon as possible but I currently feel I could technically continue this indefinitely with very few ill effects.

[esotericn]

That's lovely for you. I hope you enjoy your video chats.

I only commented in reaction to your wild claim of 100% mental problems.

[esotericn]

If you're happy existing with one other person and video calls indefinitely, then I consider you to be an obvious troll.

Nah.

You are not everyone. I know people that are thriving under lockdown. I myself am at least doing better than before. I don't understand how you can think your experience is UNIVERSAL. common, sure. but universal?
