I was out for ~6 months a while back. I put a schedule on my calendar, so every day had some structure. Get up at 8 or 9, breakfast, practice an instrument, game time, lunch, write applications, gym, dinner.

Did the same through the lockdowns and some structure really helps.

Agreed. I was doing pretty well the first 2 months or so, but I crashed into a bit of a delayed depressive episode over it all the last month. I'll get sick of my own moping and wrangle myself again soon.

Yeah you'll get it :)
and if you don't, ask for help. Most people can relate anyway.
