Hi @HunrerHenners Welcome to the community, glad to see you have joined us. Like a lot of people that are struggling at present times coming on here does pass time and see how others share your feelings.
Will it be better for you when some of the measures are lifted this month, what would you be doing that you cant do ?
It is hard times but important you keep safe and hoping you find some other interests to keep you occupied

I've become quite addicted to a colouring app - Happy Colour. That has made the lockdown fly quite quickly! My husband loves gaming, he's excited about a reveal or whatever it's called tomorrow night for the Playstation 5. What's your favourite gaming console?

I used to be obsessed with the LEGO games, wasn't satisfied unless I got 100% and all the achievements ? I do miss playing, due to poor fine motor skills it's difficult to to press buttons etc. They were good while they lasted though! My husband is into Dark Souls and them type of games. He is a Sonic fan too Disability Gamechanger - 2019
