Humans are social creatures and we don’t do well in isolation. That’s exactly why state penitentiaries punish prisoners by putting them into solitary confinement. It causes them great mental anguish.
Many of us have felt like prisoners in solitary confinement over the last couple of months because of the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown. And many of us have been feeling our own mental anguish from this extended isolation.
Tapping into our creativity is one way we can cope with the loneliness that comes from isolation. Read on for more tips.

Human beings have a need for social connection. It stems from our ancestors needing to stick together to stay alive. Back in the day, those individuals who strayed from the group had a harder time surviving the elements and not starving to death.

I stand with you ❤️ There are no words of comfort I can share that would alleviate the pain you are feeling. All I can offer is space to honor your experience without having to justify why you feel the way you feel. I can continue to do my own Antiracist work and continue to challenge racist systems. I see you, respect you, and value you as you are. You are enough.

Emotions aren’t ‘good’ or ‘bad’, they all have a function.
1. They communicate to and influence others
2. They organize us and motivate us to act
3. They are signals to us that we need to pay attention
4. They are the foundation for empathy

Rather than automatically fixing or pushing away the emotion take time to ask what is this emotion trying to tell me
