How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?

This question is really funny to me, because though it felt pretty embarrassing for awhile to admit, if I had to be honest, Covid-19 didn’t impact how I lived my life what-so-ever.

I mean, yeah, I noticed the world changing around me. Less people outside & on the roads. More people on the internet. Whatever.

Really, all Covid did was give me an alibi. “Why is there a gap in your resume?” Ummm, yeah, let’s go with the world went to Hell 6 years ago, so don’t question me…

The thing about my life is that I’ve been isolating my self for probably the last 10 years, slowly withdrawing more & more from the world. And coincidentally enough, Covid gave me an easy out to just completely disappear. 

I lived at home, so I didn’t need to pay for rent or food since my parents really do love me, even the times I took it for granted. I did work a little bit during, but it was a cleaning job for apartments people had moved out of, so either way, there wasn’t really any interaction with people at work. Then, I got fired, so I didn’t even have to leave tne house at all anymore.

I didn’t have any friends. I don’t really now still. I had no reason to go out, or miss going out. Like I said, Covid became my alibi for why I stayed inside rather than admitting “I wanna die..

This post kinda turned into a confession of my depression; almost like a “farewell,” or maybe an obituary. Not for me, but Whöever I was during Covid-19.
