Managing feelings about lockdown easing
Many of us struggled to maintain our mental wellbeing during the COVID-19 pandemic. In full lockdown things
might have felt more certain or predictable, but now that lockdown restrictions are easing things might feel
less clear. It can feel stressful when things are changing, and it takes time to readjust.
Lifting of restrictions can bring about new anxieties and challenges such as restarting a business, visiting
vulnerable family or friends, feeling safe or even understanding the new guidance. You may worry about there
being an increase in COVID-19 infections or have anxiety about having the vaccine. The world may seem unsafe
now, whether or not you felt like this before the pandemic. You may be grieving for people who have died, or
from other types of loss, such as the loss of a job, opportunities or a sense of community.
It’s ok to ask for help for your mental wellbeing, you are not alone. To find local services and tips on self-help go to Healthy Surrey website or MIND
