Thousands of people prove a report wrong that says the COVID Mental Health crisis wasn't bad

[sandstorm]

3 years ago today, the world pretty much stopped because of COVID-19. Several movies, such as Onward and Bloodshot, released in theaters played for less than a week before theaters shut down. and for 2 whole weeks, people were unified in protecting those who needed protection

i can't believe it's been 3 years. ngl there was something kinda nice about that part where everything shut down. the air was so clean and i didn't feel guilty doing nothing lol. i remember waking up in the middle of the night to try to buy hand sanitzer online. the stores were so eerie when they were limiting the number of people in and there were arrows and plexiglass everywhere. it was so scary too because we knew nothing about the virus at that point. and when i'd go for walks, literally every time i passed people and they were talking, it was about covid. such a strange time to live through.

we need to bring back one-way aisles at the supermarket

Most people respected those, but like 10% didn't. And it was so annoying to go around trough another isle if you wanted to go back & look for something you missed in the first one.

I was wearing a fitbit so I didn't mind extra steps

Never heard of that! Don’t think that was a thing here

less traffic jams in the aisles

It’s so odd how it doesn’t feel like it was three years, and yet sometimes it feels like it was longer than that.

Exactly, such a mind fuck

I want everything to shut down forever, I don’t want to see people ever again

it was so nice to have an acceptable excuse not to go places with people

Honestly, those few weeks were fucking remarkable because it felt like the first truly global Holy Fuck moment.

Few weeks? Our remaining restrictions end this April 😅

It feels like it was 10 years ago but also it's as if it only lasted a month. I know I visibly aged at least 5 years because people def think I look 30 now
