How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

<strong> We are about to begin the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic.</strong> Unreal that it is now a yearlong, and still not over, but grateful that vaccines have been developed and are becoming more widely available.<strong> I think our son has suffered the most, recovering from drug addiction and depression.</strong> Although he attends group and individual therapy, he stays at home with us and seems to have lost all motivation. This is discouraging, as my husband and I contemplate retirement. I go in to work 3 days a week, working remotely otherwise, and to the drugstore to pick up prescriptions - that's it. Tiresome and repetitive.<strong> I have worked to expand the time I spend reading books, and have begun to journal again after a long absence. This helps.</strong>
