- Assess your mental health. Focus on your thoughts or changes with your behavioral pattern. Have a short self-evaluation of your mind and body to make sure that you are still mentally fit.
- Get in touch with your loved ones, even just through phone calls and social media. Do not completely isolate yourself from the people you love and the outside world.
- Try to avoid “fake news” by reading only from reputable sources of information such as newspapers and official health websites.
- Wake up and sleep at the same time every day, eat healthy foods, exercise, don’t watch too much TV and take breaks from your cell phone.
- Have your own financial plan. Having a budget could help you stretch your savings for the rainy days.
