To think this is torturing single people?

Even if it's intermittent lockdown and social distancing... Both mean you're not supposed to meet with family and friends.

If you live alone this is torture. Isolation is used as torture/punishment fgs!
We're always being shown that families are more important, that we've failed by not having a partner and reproducing. Now we are expected to live in isolation for months on end.

And at the end of it, no one is going to say "well done for undergoing months of torture to protect others" or support us with healing from the trauma this will cause. As usual, just expected to suck it up.

I cant do this.

Hi VirtualHugsAllRound,

We hope you don't mind but we thought we'd add a link to this webpage from Mind.org - coronavirus and your wellbeing. They've put together lots of useful information for anyone who's feeling anxious or struggling to cope right now, with lots of practical tips on taking care of your mental health and wellbeing, and ideas on how to stay connected with people. Please do take a look.

Here too, for anyone who may need it, is a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website or email them on [email protected] or call, free, anytime, on 116 123. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you'll all be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but it's a good idea to seek real life help and support as well.

Take care, everyone. Flowers
