The coronavirus (COVID-19) has caused major changes in our lives. You may feel stressed, depressed, bored, upset, or lonely. It is important to take care of yourself:
- Stay in touch with supportive people in your life by phone, text, or
online groups - Take care of yourself by eating healthy foods, exercising, and
getting sleep - Find hobbies you enjoy
- Avoid drinking a lot of alcohol or using drugs
- Take breaks from watching or reading the news
You are not alone. Call for help over the phone if your emotions make it hard for you to do the things you normally do, if you feel like harming yourself, or if you are using drugs or drinking more alcohol than you planned.
