All of Ukraine has been locked up for more than two months because of the coronavirus. And now, finally, the long-awaited relaxation of the quarantine. But, instead of the joy of the freedom that has fallen upon us, we feel … tiredness, apathy or even fear of society.
How to return to normal life after quarantine? It is important to go out into society with care and attention to your feelings, sensations in the body and emotions. With care and attention, love for yourself and others. For example, if you feel reluctance to communicate with someone in particular, do not communicate. As a last resort - refer to some circumstances. And if you are ready for a dialogue about this discomfort, honestly admit what is happening to you. Explain the reason for your feelings, make agreements with this person. Apologize and ask to leave you alone for now to sort out yourself. It is also important to thank for the conversation, regardless of the outcome. Enter the world of communication and communication leisurely, carefully to yourself and the people around you.
What difficulties do people need to prepare themselves for, returning "to life"? Difficulty number one: uncertainty, loss of clarity and clarity in today and tomorrow. When there is uncertainty about work, about finances, about relationships, about other things. When, before quarantine, I had a job, a steady income, a stable relationship with my own rules. Quarantine could be for some a time of loss of clarity, clarity and certainty. What to do? First: allow yourself to experience feelings of bitterness, anger, resentment, fear. Second: build a step-by-step action plan. And go ahead: update your resume, update your portfolio, actively apply for vacancies and accept any offers that can bring your professional inspiration and passion back to life. Difficulty number two: the world has changed, people could change. Life crises are often capable of creating a revolution in the psyche, a revision of life values, priorities and interests. It just needs to be taken for granted. No criticism or evaluation. Just look at it as a fact. What to do? Avoid impulsive, hasty and hasty decisions. Let the world settle in new, changed, realities. Give time: three or five months. And talk, be interested in the motives of change in others. Explore the world, it's so interesting and different! Difficulty number three: the right to error as the right to experience. In quarantine, you could allow certain actions, steps, words that, as it seems to you, have become wrong, destructive and "erroneous" for you. Now is the time to return to them and, if possible, change them. And if there is no such possibility, allow yourself to treat this event not as a mistake, but as another plus in your experience of life. Now you understand exactly how and why you should not do this.
Is there a difference in how introverts and extroverts need to get out of quarantine? After all, we are all different. The difference is more likely not in the types (introvert, extrovert), but in the individual's personality. It is a myth that introverts do not like to communicate - they do, however, in their degree, and it is different than that of extroverts (for comparison: like a teaspoon and a tablespoon, all these are spoons, but each has its own measure). For example, if you know that you are an extrovert, and your neighbor is an introvert, then … I ask you to treat yourself and your neighbor with care and accuracy. He also missed communication and he will be glad to see you and say hello, but this is not a reason to climb into a close and strong friendly embrace. Better ask him: can I hug you / shake your hand, neighbor? And if not, then look for the same extrovert so that you and him speak the same language of need for contact. Look more at the need, the need of a person, rather than at his intro- or extroversion. Ask and take an interest in his condition and desire. And, of course, getting out of quarantine is a good time for your personal observation of the changes before, during and after quarantine as a period of social isolation. It doesn't matter who you are, what matters is that we all need respect, acceptance, and security. Always.
