The world has changed since Covid and I don’t like it.

I am just staying close to my family. People seem to be rude and angry. I believe it’s a result of the breakdown of family and being locked down by government which is totally out of control.

You are so right ! No one cares about anyone anymore . No one understands my fear . My husband has cancer and he just wants to live his life . I feel like I am alone with my fear of COVID . My family and friend’s have moved on .

My social worker who I zoom with twice a month has noticed a huge change with many of her clients too since covid and some who were laid off still dont have employment.
Many people working at jobs from home - which is something we might have wished years ago - but have lost the connection with fellow employees - isolated.
Also couples or family members working from home - sometimes the break going out to work and then enjoying each others company in evenings and weekends, now together 24/7 doesn't always work well. Fear of the winter starting already two of our local places - one Seniors apartments the other Seniors supportive housing both have outbreaks right now. So out come the masks again. Spouse has had triple bypass surgery etc. so has worn a mast to the grocery store or pharmacist all summer but not many people are. Talking about this the other day and man professionals, eg doctors, got used to working from home and now seems hours at their office have shrunk... I think it affected everyone in a small or big way: and how is it for those whose family member/s died - they are a statistic to us all but it was someone they loved.

How would I know, I've become a hermit since covid. Has the world changed?

Yes, I have certainly noticed it. One thing I have noticed is very hostile driving by people. I live in New Jersey. Generally, we have hostile drivers. But it has gotten much worse. And I don't mean, just bad behavior, I mean directly threatening behavior. For example, I was on an entrance ramp to Route 22. People were honking at me to enter the highway quicker. I felt physically threatened. I was going to call the police, but the traffic cleared and I was able to go. This could easily have become a physical encounter.
