One of my friends called me today and he was almost shouting with the harshest tone and abusing the government and the leaders. He was extremely angry over the decision of extending the lockdown for the fourth time. We may go soon for the fifth version of lockdown after listening to him for quite a while, I found that he was upset over the uncertainties and has a fear for his life on one hand while on the other, he was feeling bad for his freedom over social isolation, especially in absence of his office colleagues and friends.

He made a statement that he has been in lock up as if he has committed a crime, I quietly clarified that lock up and lockdown are two different things. Lock up are normally in police stations where offenders and criminal are kept, locked from outside, kept away from family and friends in isolation and their basic police whereas, in lockdown, one must physically distance himself away from others apart from living with his or her family

The second question posed by him was on the uncertainty about life, unfounded fear of death, and anxieties about the future. After a little effort in a counselling tone, I convinced him that the present situation has not been created by me, you or anyone else, it is not in our control and we should not feel guilty towards things which are not in our control.

I spent a considerable amount of time listening to him, he agreed with me on a few things in between our conversation. He questioned I do not have anything to do these days, which is frustrating. I told him that it’s simply because you do not want to do anything so you have nothing to do. There is a lot of pending work at home – writing diaries, copying addresses and contact numbers, taking care of hobbies to play with children, arranging photo albums, cooking, gardening, talking to lost friends, and it’s an endless list. You are afraid of doing work so you are avoiding. Above all, you have to care for yourself and your family members so spend the time by doing physical This is the perfect time for remembering good memories of past with family members in person and with friends on phone; creating happier, pleasant and satisfying situations in the present, and planning for future dreams and doable actions.

Lockdown period is one such compulsion. Let us take this time for self-exploration, building relationships within the family, and in social connectedness, so stay home, stay safe, and stay connected. Now I am waiting for his next call with other reactions
