https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling We all have been affected by COVID-19 in many different ways - lack of social interaction, academic stress, fear of loved ones getting sick, a repetitive daily routine... Let's have a metal health check in. Here is a safe space for us college students to share what we have learned, overcame, dealt with, or anything we have experienced during the pandemic. Please share as much or as little as you'd like about your mental health and/or the coping methods that work for you. en-us 2021-04-23 21:15:47 UTC 2026-03-14 19:45:20 UTC hello@padlet.com creamflowers https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1453709363 a mood.]]> 2021-04-23 21:40:54 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1453709363 creamflowers https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480156527 beginning of quarantine was tuff. i felt uncertain, scared, out of balance, unmotivated, and i started having waves of anxiety that would interrupt me as i'm about to fall asleep. this is something i haven't been able to share with anyone and it's extremely frustrating since i can be having an amazing day but then at night, my anxiety would suddenly creep in and i would have a panic attack.]]> 2021-04-30 22:45:13 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480156527 https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480159668 I'm just straight up maaad!]]> 2021-04-30 22:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480159668 https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480160598 This pandemic has affected my mental health in so many different ways that I am still trying to process. Although I have been lucky enough to stay home most of the year, I have experienced so much stress and anxiety. It has been extremely overwhelming and it's been difficult seeking help. The resources are there, but the organizations and institutions that provide these resources do not make them accessible for all. ]]> 2021-04-30 22:48:31 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480160598 creamflowers https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480163423 2021-04-30 22:48:56 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480163423 creamflowers https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480164790 i've been trying to do this (have not been consistent at all lmao) but i always feel sm better after each video!]]> 2021-04-30 22:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480164790 https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480204783 Recently my boyfriend has gotten me really into Korean rnb. It's helped me chill and vibe out after a long stressful day of school. Some of my fav korean artists are Jimmy Brown, DEAN, Ouioui, BAEKHYUN, JUNNY, Gsoul, TAEYEON, and IU!

I listen to this song when I feel overwhelmed, sad, stressed, overall pandemic emotions. It reminds me that each day is a new day to reset. One hard day can be really tough on the mental, but when I listen to this song, I choose to look forward to the new day and wash away the previous woes]]> 2021-04-30 23:48:36 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480232500 https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480545144 I’ve been feeling so lost during the pandemic because everyday feels the same, where I just go to zoom uni and then do the same hw routine. It’s pretty exhausting and then to not be where you expect to be academically has had another mental toll on me. I know it’s pretty toxic to compare yourself to others, but it’s pretty inevitable to me and then I feel another another layer of stress and pressure to do better. I guess in short, I’m pretty confused on what I want to do in the future and I find myself questioning the choices I have made in college thus far. But overall, despite the challenges of the pandemic, I know that everyone is going through similar situations and that this feeling won’t last forever. I’m feeling very grateful to look at the positives of the pandemic as in being closer to my family and appreciating the smaller moments in life. hang in there everyone! ]]> 2021-05-01 06:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480545144 https://padlet.com/creamflowers/howareyouactuallyfeeling/wish/1480559791 I’ve been trying many new local restaurants in my area which is rlly fun.

this pandemic has had affects on my mental health that I don't even know how to grapple with yet. I feel lost, in a haze, and confused on what it is that I am going to do with my life. I dont really think I chose the right major. Anyways, just wanted to tell the person that is reading this right now that you're love, you have a purpose, and you're never alone as lonely as it does feel at times. keep powering through! we got this
