I have survived what I was told I won't survive. I was told I won't manage. I was told I'll be lost. Yeah I lost myself and found again. And it doesn't matter anymore who I lose as long as I don't lose myself. This is my lesson. | |||

"I need social interaction more than I realised. I thought I was just the quiet one, happy to be left to my own devices but I do miss talking to people" I can totally relate. I’ve always been fairly solitary but I realised that I needed to be near others. It was hard to manage at first | |||

"Routine and structure is something I tend to dislike and don’t really need but have learned how essential it is for good physical and mental health. " Do you mean for yourself or for others? | |||

"Probably done me a world of good in terms of being more productive. Getting out more for runs and walks. " That’s a real positive. Will you continue it? | |||

"Lockdown coincided with the end of a relationship so I'm not sure which one affected the things I've learned. One thing is how important people are to me; whether that's because without them I wouldn't have the job I'm very lucky to have, the support network they provide and the source of joy and entertainment they bring me daily. I think before I didn't really appreciate people. I'm used to always being there for others and helping others out but I forgot how much others will be there for you when you need them. The way I use Fab has definitely changed. For one, I'm not as active on the forums. I'm also more determined to not put meeting people off for as long as possible for fear I'm not enough. I am. And life is too short to not actually take that chance, try something/one new. Enjoy it a bit. " So to clarify; to let others help you and allow them to support you, and to be more proactive in your interactions with fab? | |||

I’ve always been fairly solitary but I realised that I needed to be near others. It was hard to manage at first" It's probably a case where always being around people meant I just wanted a break from them but to do a full 180 was quite the shock. All good things in moderation as they say! | |||

"I need social interaction more than I realised. I thought I was just the quiet one, happy to be left to my own devices but I do miss talking to people" Very much this, at the start it was great as my social anxiety wasn't an issue, I didn't have to be social and for that matter wasn't allowed to but over time this has become a growing issue I am not as well built for solitude as I first thought I have missed interacting with people and being close to the ones I choose to love and care about and it really kind of sucks. I have changed the way I use fab as i am more active on the forums than i have ever been and am makong more effort to engage with other people and even being more proactive in looking for people to meet in the real world | |||

"So to clarify; to let others help you and allow them to support you, and to be more proactive in your interactions with fab? " Not quite clarify because that would suggest my waffling is incomprehensible. 
But to shorten it, yes. Maybe not be more proactive in my interactions though, if I'm interested in someone I do tend to talk to them and I'm good at messaging and talking their eyes out of their skull. I do need to actually meet people though and not just put it off out of self doubt. | |||

"I have been fortunate in that lockdown hasn’t had much impact on me. I have worked throughout and had social interaction through work, even though I do much of my work alone. I am used to solitude and happy with it so that was an advantage over many other people. I think the only thing that I have learnt over the past 18 months is just how selfish a lot of people are. And just how considerate and caring many others are " I would probably echo that | |||

"7 things I realised during lockdown: 1. A lot of people are extremely selfish users & only call when they need something or when it suits them. 2. Time is precious, you can't get it back 3. The best things in life are free, the simple things are the important things 4. Everyone on facebook is a medical expert 5. I realised I am super independent & enjoy my own company. More "Me" time is needed 6. Now is a good time to cut off people that cause you problems, misery or general unhappiness 7. It's easier to save money in a lockdown when you have nowhere to go and spend it " There are a lot of life lessons in there! | |||

"I need to use my skills to do good in the world. And I can. I can't assume even the most basic level of commonality with others. We're all subtly influenced by our culture and upbringing, in ways that continue to surprise me. There's always more to learn." I absolutely agree with the last line | |||

"None of us know what's around the corner - no matter how tightly we plan. What and who really matters to me. And what and who doesn't. That I need to feel like I'm making a difference in the world, however small that is. And that I can. Mrs TMN x" Those sound like valuable lessons | |||

"I have learnt that the less you have sex, the less you get BV. Or maybe I just showered less and didn't upset my fanny acid so much. I love nature more than I thought. People are cuntwaffles. Some others aren't cuntwaffles, but at times it's almost impossible to tell until something major happens, like the world falling into chaos and the truth having nowhere to hide. Some folks would murder their granny for a fuck, others are prepared to leave a fuck with life debilitating health issues because believing a conspiracy theory is easier for them than facing reality, plus they're healthy enough to pull through if they DID catch the lurgy... so fuck it eh. I can survive on cuppa soups, although it's not fun. I would love a community that really did look out for and help each other, coz it came naturally, not coz they were told they should. Health care workers are soldiers without the ceremonies." I’m probably going to regret this but what’s BV? | |||

"I've learned that I miss some people, but I'm unsure how much they miss me. I've learned that whatever I've been hoping for in life is probably not going to happen. I've learned that a staggering amount of people are arseholes. I've learned that there are a lot of amazing people, but mostly their voices are drowned out by the arseholes. I've learned that many politicians are even bigger cunts that I ever imagined could be possible, they are not just amoral but have never even heard of morals, and they will do literally anything to line their own pockets. I've learned that the world is getting worse, not getting better. I've learned that I get depressed, anxious, impatient, tired, so so tired... I've learned that I'm older than I was, and I feel even older still. " I think that this period has left a lot of people feeling very disillusioned as you are, I’m fairly similar.

I shall keep on swimming, but sometimes it feels like someone is holding my legs and I’m not getting anywhere! " I hear you, I feel flat and sparkless too.

"Routine and structure is something I tend to dislike and don’t really need but have learned how essential it is for good physical and mental health. Do you mean for yourself or for others? " For me. At the start working from home after being in different countries and offices always planning drivers, flights, hotels etc I just stopped and everything suffered , I wasn’t eating properly or training, staying up till 3/4 am. It took a while but I sorted it and built a home based routine that I mostly follow now | |||
