Mental health pandemic

One thing I have noticed is that many Brits seem to be stressed and suffering their own mental hell. They are afraid of the outcome of this Lockdown and feel helpless, they don't know what is going to happen to them. All I can do for my fellow Brits is try to give you some comfort. 

You are not free to go outside so try to play computer games and read about things that have nothing to do with the virus and watch videos of people making things on youtube and perhaps a few mystery shows on Netflix about solving crimes. Some favourite books of mine are Holocaust Memoirs, paranormal books and back stories to sci fi movies. The Bible book of Daniel is also very interesting. 

Keep your chin up and try not to think about the chaos that is happening all around you. If this blog gives you comfort then feel welcome to read it and if does nothing for you then don't read it, it is just a blog and I won't feel sad if no one reads it. 

Remember to pray my friend. Tell God how you feel and get it all off your chest.

One month

In the space of about one month, I will hopefully become a parent. My son, Jacob is due to be born during the first week of April.

It is a stressful time for me but I have many coping mechanisms inside my head to help me feel less stressed. I create things such as art and videos, and I create machines inside my head that do certain things. I try to solve logical problems inside my head. People will see me and think I'm absent minded because they don't understand what is going on.

Anyway, there are many questions I have about the near future. Such as, will I give Jacob a good childhood? Will he have a long happy life? What will it mean to be a British boy growing up in the 2020's for Jacob. Will he live in a country that has been driven into poverty?  Will Jacob have a good social life and find it easy to make friends? What will Jacob value when he is an adult? What will he look like? Will he have good health? Will Jacob have good parents that steer him in all the right paths. Will his birth be straightforward and safe? So many questions, so many.

Some of my own Questions cause anxiety?
