Abstract
With #stayhome, we are all in a very unusual situation. The quarantine can lead to
social isolation, which can have far-reaching psychological consequences.
Events are canceled, offices are moved to the home, and outdoor leisure
activities are forbidden. Restrictions like these are difficult for most people to
handle, but they present an even greater challenge to those already suffering
from depression. How we relate to one another in this time of uncertainty has
caused us all to consider how things were and how we want them to be moving
forward.
