We're all in a collective emotional slump right now, feeling tired, fed up, angry and just plain old BORED with the continuing, seemingly never-ending life under coronavirus. AAAGGGHHHHH....
With the manic positive energy of early lockdown long gone, and people feeling disillusioned with things, this mounting frustration as weeks become months (and months) is manifesting itself in all sorts of different emotions.
In this episode, writer Becky Howard and psychotherapist Lucy Clyde delve into the different mental health challenges this is presenting us with - for some of us it's futile raging anger, for others is depleting exhaustion. And for some of us it's a touch of melancholia - but how can we deal with this and get through it?
Listen in to find out how - and also discover Lucy's incredible lockdown super-power at the top of the episode...

Lockdown is easing, we're venturing out, but why don't things feel OK yet? Even if we HAVE had a haircut?
It's because we're returning not to a post-Covid world, but one where the virus is still with us, and that post-apocalyptic 28 Days Later vibe is now normal. What's it doing to our mental health?
Psychotherapist Lucy Clyde and writer Becky Howard wrap up the first series of How To Cope with a look into why the new outside world feels a very tense and stressful place to be. We look back at what we've been through on lockdown these past four months, big ourselves up for what we've all achieved in this crazy state, and have some helpful advice for how to face the next few uncertain months.
Plus - we record our FIRST episode together in person!
