As a counterexample, I felt awful in March and April and feel much better now. Very little has changed about my day to day routine. I think different people handle these things differently. I don't seem to have experienced this "surge capacity" phenomenon.
I think it's because I'm a naturally very private, introverted person, and have a lot of practice with isolation already. So now that the initial fears and anxieties have subsided, I've settled into a comfortable routine.
It's not ideal, and I miss having the option to see people or go to events. But for me, things are more manageable now than they were early on, where I was filled with constant dread and anxiety.
- war1025 6y agoWe actually had sort of a sweet spot the the late spring / early summer where the worst case scenario had obviously not happened, but people were still not going back to seeing their regular friends / family. During that time, we got to hang out with our neighbors almost daily. It was great. Now everyone is back to work / family / etc. Same neighborhood, same people, just they don't come out to play anymore.
