Feeling TIRED during the COVID-19 Pandemic? Well, there are good reasons why you feel this way. We will start by acknowledging what is happening, learn about
reasons why COVID Tired is occurring for so many of us
and include ideas of how to deal with the fatigue in meaningful
ways. Are you frustrated with having to continuously wash your hands, wear masks, wash down groceries, use hand-sanitizer until your hands are raw? Well, you are not alone and have joined a growing number of people feeling this way in what is now recognized as "Caution Fatigue". There are many reasons for an increase in anxiety, fear and
depression during this this time that naturally lead to feelings of
exhaustion. Whether you have lost a family member, friend or
acquaintance due to COVID-19 or are fearful of getting ill
yourself. Whether you are engaged in Self-Learning, Working from
Home, not working and not studying (bored silly?), living in a
tight space where there is no quiet, feeling job insecurity or
trying to start your career with no prospects. Perhaps you are
losing/lost a business/home or sense of freedom, financial worries,
or preparing for a retirement that has now been put on hold because
of the COVID-19 Pandemic – these can all create a draining feeling
that is difficult to shake. |
