I don't think theres that much of a difference. Most of the people who're doing well are staying at home with a partner or family and have a healthy relationship. I can't imagine anyone in my situation of being cut off from almost all human contact (young+single+alone) for 4 months being "better than ever".

  I too was having a pretty decent time, setting up an apartment I’d moved into right before the pandemic hit my city. Then recently I traveled and stayed with my GF for three weeks, and now she is here for two weeks, and I’m more tired than ever. After this my parents will want me to visit, but I will be taking some time to myself in between and have asked my girlfriend to go home a week early. I want to get back into my nice routine of waking up and making coffee and breakfast and working out, and reading before bed, and working on personal projects after work. I fear, as much as I like her that she may be far less independent than I am. And it’s a bit troubling. But for now I am just looking forward to being on my own again for a while. I do miss the office though, I had a nice ten minute walking commute although am happy to be less distracted at work. It’s all ups and downs really. I hope GP and everyone else adversely affected by this comes out strong on the other side and is able to receive the help they need or overcome the challenges they face. We’ve all got them, but it’s just different magnitudes on different dimensions of an incredibly complex space. And spilling my coffee twice would give me a conniption! It’s locally roasted organic gosh darn it!
