CONTINUE: Connecting Youth Through Storytelling
Please Report the Errrors?
in those times I was a student and all my education went online,
and it affected me really badly because I was super depressed.
Then, after a while of isolation,
it got kind of or
being stuck inside.
I started to focus on myself more on on the smaller things.
Uh, my parents lost their restaurant during the covid pandemic because
they had to lock the kid down and they weren't making as much money anymore.
We didn't really expect that. It will, like,
have such a big influence
at
our lives.
How was your mental health during the coup? Absolutely terrible.
It definitely took a downward spiral.
I was not happy at all, and it was just really depressing.
And that was kind of hard at first because, like,
you're not used to interacting with people.
So you kind of feel sort of nervous and anxious about, like going to meet my friends,
which makes no sense because they're my friends.
Um,
so that was that was probably the hardest bit for me. I started to have, like,
problems with my mental health because of this,
because I felt very isolated from other people.
This pandemic made,
uh, like our life Very uncertain.
Having good mental health is not something that should be a privilege.
It should be like a basic right
had the covid. So, uh, my lungs are
a a lot destroyed.
I live on the second floor, so I had, like, difficulties to go to the second floor
21 to 22. I was perfect. And the covid came. Uh, I'm 23
there is the case that for half year I have to recover what I gain for,
like all my life to to function normally,
uh,
so easy to meet
in the middle of class without anyone noticing
just by one click of a button,
I skipped almost a whole year,
I think just like any of the teachers follow up on you or call you
to tell you to go to class. Yes.
Well, yeah, quite a lot, actually.
But I never answered any of the calls or messages.
Also, like working. I am, As I said, I am lucky.
My job, um, is a job that I can do home office,
but, um, I like peer to peer interaction,
and I can't focus that good enough when I am
doing online meetings and everything.
So it was a bit hard for me, challenging for me
the day which I went to university to be, uh, offline, To be in person,
to see the people and to see the committee,
which I will be presenting myself and defending my, uh, thesis.
Uh, it was like, amazing day, because for the first time in one year, I meet
nine people from my, uh, from my university,
and I was so happy that I'm on the university lock down
Year 11.
And so initially I was
really
worried
because
I
spent so much time on for my career focused on my career,
which was really good impact on my life.
I did
that is
moving out
of my
house
in my own
the last
one.
And
I just like,
even to their own place and my
friends
for, uh,
activity
inspired and
gets me
extroverts,
Uh,
and
becoming vulnerable both to the plague. Like covid.
Also, you're becoming vulnerable to the bad toads.
I was like woke up at the morning
and sit in front of my computer from the morning to the evening, even in the night.
And because of that, I have the glasses
