Sounds cliche but get a hobby. I have gotten into cooking Nd reading books during this lockdown and it has allowed me to free up my mind. Find what you enjoy doing and then make a habit of doing that every day.
I did start one hobby. yes, it somewhat seems to work. Thanks for your suggestion.
If you live in Hyderabad, come to my place, let's have a barbecue. Jokes apart, hold on everyone's in similar boat. This is all going to end one day, and life will be normal again. Hold on till then, as others suggested try to learn something new, cook or some gardening stuff or anything else.
Have some sex dude
You need to completely disconnect from work for a good 2 weeks and just relax...do not follow any schedule..sleep, eat wake up, exercise as your body desires..minimum internet/tv usage..worked for me..
I did take some time off but did not completely disconnect from the internet. I will try to have some downtime every day from the internet.
Yes, and stay away from all kinds of news..it is mostly depressing. wish you happiness and peace!
Talk to a therapist or close friends about it. Your company probably offers free counseling through EAP
Yeah. Will check it out.
Bill bezos all your bills. Happiness will sky rocket π
Didn't understand you bro but thanks for trying. Effort matters π
Did you forget your username?
Nah man I am a good boy.
Your TC is 55? Where do you live?
OP is in India. That's 55 Lacs (5500 k) INR.
India. That's kind of normal if you have good stocks at Microsoft for l62
