Combat Pandemic-Related Loneliness

Whether you’re self-isolating to limit your exposure, staying home because you feel unwell, or quarantining to keep others safe, being at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic can contribute to feelings of isolation and loneliness if you’re by yourself. Some ways to help you cope with these feelings include: 1) keeping to a schedule to feel as “normal” as possible; 2) staying active indoors or outside; 3) connecting with others remotely via video call, phone call, or social media; 4) practicing self-care, like taking a long bath or meditating; and 5) distracting yourself with activities that you enjoy.
