Chronicle from the lockdown: day 10 - psychological resilience

Hi there from a locked down in Italy!

Here we are in the day 10 and today it was (strange but true) a quiet day for our nerves. I'm saying this because in the previous days we read a lot of posts on social media and watched a lot of tv news about bad facts (the number of infected people, the deaths, etc) that made people so rude and/or so down and it was not good, believe me. Yesterday I thought people, at the end, could become like cavemen and the risk was not just about the physical health, but also for the mental health. Today , for the first day after 10 days, on tv there were just old movies or tv series, for the news we can watch the breaking news 2-3 times at day and no more (and this is good, because to listen just about deaths for all the days is really dangerous for nerves).Also on the social media, the mood is normal (ok, enough normal, thinking about the horrible situation). Everyone of us knows exactly how dramatic is the situation, we are are all inside our home respecting the restrictions and so, now, we have to live the "stay at home" in a quiet way, more than possible. Too much fear in a lockdown situation after some days make people crazy, especially people who can't work cause the lockdown. So, at now, there are 3 different problems thanks the covid-19:

1) the physical health,

2) the mental health cause fear and anxiety.

3) the economy's crisis will have whe we'll save from virus.

Well, we are strong and now the only thing we can do is to live in a safe way at home and I'm thinking about the
psychological resilience.

Psychological resiliance is an useful way to face a moment like this one, because it's the ability to cope with a bad moment and it's good to hold out during it.

Now some of us are trying to protect ourself from the (many) negative effects of stress caused by fear and so I'm doing all my best for me and for my family. Fortunately I'm a very creative woman and I'm using my imagination to share some good vibes with simple images like the first one in this content.

Another thing I'm doing with pleasure is to read book. I have a lot of books to read at home (thanks my job in the bookshop - the bookshop is closed now) and this is another way to spent time in a quiet way.

See ya soon and stay safe,

Silvia
