I want to start by clarifying that I do obviously want life to return to "normal" eventually, but I've found that I'm okay staying home right now. I just don't want to get too comfortable and not want to return to work.

Before all of this started, I worked in a really toxic work environment for two years. Everyone gossiped, nothing you did was ever right, etc etc. We were also always extremely understaffed and I just got burnt out. I finally had enough and found another job.

I started my new job in February and it was a complete 180 from my last job. But obviously I wasn't there very long before everything was shut down. I work in childcare so I was furloughed and am not working from home. I am still in contact with one other teacher, but I don't really have strong connections at this new school yet.

My depression and anxiety have definitely been fluctuating during quarantine, but I think that for the most part, I enjoy being at home. A lot of my anxiety stems from social situations and quarantine has been a relief from that. Part of me wants things to stay like this for a while longer and I know that sounds crazy. But has anyone else been having similar feelings?

Edit: It feels so good to read all of these comments and realize I am not alone in this.
