Dr. Jenn says the key to overcoming loneliness if you’re single and suddenly forced into isolation is a whole lot of structure, and some help from your friends … virtually, of course.
The “Couples Therapy” doc tells TMZ she’s been talking to several single people who are grappling with the new reality of self-quarantines and trying not to go stir crazy, and she says the best way to deal with it … wake up with a plan!!!
Dr. Jenn says for those working from home this means starting each day with a purpose and a schedule — as if you were still going into the office — and to continue focusing on hobbies, creative endeavors or self-care when work hours are over.
For the newly unemployed or furloughed, she recommends using the time to improve one’s health … through exercise, self-reflection and intellectual stimulation.
That’s all great, but obviously, people still need to engage socially with the outside world — and Jenn highly recommends reaching out, but not the way ya used to do it.
Check out her tips … chances are you’re gonna need ’em soon.
