“I never thought of myself as a social person but during COVID I’ve realized I still need…”

So what am I grateful for? And I know it’s really hard for my dad not to be home, but I am really grateful that he gets to be with his parents. Especially with my pop-pop for his first chemo treatment, so he can just be there to support them and it sounds like they’ve been having a really great time. My grandparents got to watch a video of a New Year’s production, my best friend and I did with our siblings and so I’m just really thankful that my dad has the opportunity to do that and stay safe from COVID. We’ve been hard core quarantining, my grandparents have their vaccine now. So, they really are being safe and I was so thankful that my dad got to do that because he really needed to have that time with his parents and it’s been like a really good, I think relationship changing time for him and so I’ve been really thankful for that. So anything difficult? I kind of described the stuff with my pop-pop, but I think I’m just struggling in general with COVID right now because there are a lot of things I haven’t processed. It’s just everything has been so heavy, like it’s first of all really hard for me to be so isolated from people, like I never thought of myself as a social person but during COVID I’ve realized I still need that contact with people and you know, just seeing my friends in person. So that’s been a real struggle for me. And so I guess I just really haven’t been processing things well, like just not working through my emotions with that or thinking about it a lot.m just struggling in general with COVID right now because there are a lot of things I haven’t processed.
