If feeling guilty, tutor your mind to process that the situation was beyond your control.
Accept the fact that the pandemic hit the world and you did the best you could for your loved one.One of the ways to live with a loss is by remembering positive aspects of the departed person.
Think of the happy memories and talk to your friends about good time shared with the person.If you have kids, tell them that the departed person is living through you and them.
In a sensitive way, explain to kids how genetically you are connected, and therefore, will never be disconnected with the departed person.Rituals help in some amount of healing process.
If you are a relative of the departed person, try not to be inquisitive about cause and nature of death.
Rather, focus on sending positive vibes and help during the quarantine period.If the person who has lost a close family member, shows signs of weight loss, prolonged irritability, sadness, signs of clinical depression, one should not hesitate to approach a psychiatrist for timely recognition, rectification and treatment.
The two-year stressful period and unprecedented change has had an impact on people’s minds, far more than what meets the eye.
Many people have lost their loved ones and hence, organisations must give employees time to heal and allow at least a partial closure of the tragedy, until they feel fit enough to resume charge.Give people some time to accept the fact that a lot has changed in the past two years—be it in employment status, salaries, peer bonding etc.
Hence, realistic goals and targets should be set, keeping in mind what the employee is going through in his personal life.When employees get vaccinated, firms should facilitate a smooth transition from ‘work from home’ to resuming normal office by giving them options such as taking up WFH for three days a week initially and then, gradually moving to 6-days office.
In fact, a hybrid environment is the way forward.Psychological counselling is a must for those employees who have just recovered from Covid and are facing post-Covid fatigue.Facilitate team bonding exercises to heal the overworked staff, motivate the ones facing brain fog and calm the cantankerous employees.
The suffering of the survivors of Covid is not only related to the traumatic events; rather, the subsequent life events and sufferings in the post-Covid life cause higher emotional problems if an adequate, community-based, psychosocial care approach is not adapted.Individuals are not in any real sense autonomous or self-sufficient, their loneliness during the pandemic is real and healing occurs in the context of family, friends, and community.Effective rehabilitation methods for persons who survived Covid and those suffering from post Covid social and other traumatic events including loss of loved ones to being children who were separated from the parent due to quarantine and their complications needs to address the problems posed by various potential events.The post Covid rehabilitation planning continuum is broad in scope and must address collaboration across agencies and organisations, advance preparations, as well as needs assessments, event management, recovery and rebuilding efforts.Failure to provide these services definitely will show higher distress, disabilities, and lack of social well-being.
Local community support in coordination with Government functionaries need to reach each and every family by providing with appropriate services.
It is very important to focus on population than individuals to create a supportive and a resilient community.
A couple of factors – seeing too much of each other, not having a structured routine, inability to step out for relaxation and being cooped-up with work, domestic chores, uncertainty about future etc—have led to relationship issues.
This has manifested in the form of heated arguments, interference, nagging behaviour, hostile comments, passing judgements among couples.
Here are a few ways you can mend your broken friendship/ relationship with your partner.
Be in harmony with your own self first, then you will be in harmony with your partner.
Drop your ‘me attitude’ and adopt a ‘we attitude’.Respect the four pillars of a relationship: Communication, Trust, Empathy and RespectPrioritise your needs by keeping a flexible schedule, juggling between family time and work timeEnsure responsibilities between partners are shared.
Multi-tasking by just one partner often drains the person out and lowers his/her threshold.
Hence, there should be a rational division of roles and responsibilities of running the household.During lockdown, there is an increase in substance abuse, be it alcohol, drugs or cigarettes.
This is a form of maladaptive coping mechanism and should be addressed through building motivation to quit and seeking psychiatric advice.Keep your body language positive while communicating with partner and do not indulge in stonewalling.Couple yoga is a good way to bring in positive vibes and filling the vacuum in a relationship.If one of the partners, however, is showing signs of personality disorder, abusive behaviour, substance abuse, projecting suicidal thoughts, obsessive-compulsive signs, significant changes in behaviour, mood, appetite or sleep, then consult a psychiatrist for timely recognition, rectification and treatment.
Almost every family has been affected by Covid in some way or the other.
While adults may have gone through health issues to financial problems, for children, the access to the usual spaces that formed their ecosystem for holistic development has been suspended.
One needs to, therefore, be prepared for transition even when the pandemic is contained.
For, a lot would have changed when the world gets back to work—business styles, how schools will function, how people would be looking out for new jobs, how new skills would be sought after, how women would have learnt the art of multi-tasking and in fact, even in the way the families would function.
FOR YOUR PARENTS: 1.
Be in isolation for 14 days 2.
Do not share dishes or any equipment 3.
If you have to share space, make sure the room has good air flow 4.
Use gloved hands to clean dishes with hot detergent liquid 5.
Stay connected with doctor
FOR YOU, THE CAREGIVER: 1.Double mask yourself in the house 2.
Practise Covid-apt ways: handwashing, avoid touching face and wear gloves 3.
Quarantine yourself for 14 days and stay in touch with doctor.

Bimal Prasad Padhy, Consultant Neurologist, Care Hospital, Nampally, Hyderabad
Most patients of Covid-19 recover completely, regaining their usual strength and immunity after a few weeks of infection.
Those having severe pre-existing illness may have problems persisting beyond four weeks in what is termed post-Covid-19 syndrome or ‘long Covid-19’.
They may suffer from chronic fatigue to more severe organ dysfunctions.
As we are grappling with a relatively new disease, it is too early to tell what Covid-19 survivors are likely to experience in a year’s time.
Dr.
Bimal Prasad Padhy, Consultant Neurologist, Care Hospital, Nampally, Hyderabad
Spiritual knowledge makes it easier to cope with the loss of a loved one.
Spiritual awareness begins with understanding one’s true identity — that one is a soul.
The soul is the imperishable sentient energy that gives life to the body, which is the physical medium using which the soul thinks, speaks and acts.
Death is merely the soul leaving one body to take birth in another.
We come in contact with many people during the course of our life.
We have brief interactions with some, and longer ones with others.
The love, affection and support we receive from them creates close bonds, and when these are severed by someone’s passing away, we experience grief.
But once we recognise the truth that each soul is independent and no one belongs to us forever, we do not get attached to any person.
Yet we are able to have respectful, loving relations as we realise that each soul is playing a unique role in the world.
When a loved one passes away, instead of creating thoughts of sorrow, we can remember their good qualities, appreciate their contribution to our life, and send them good wishes for their onward journey.
If we grieve, we send vibrations of sorrow to the departed soul and disturb their peace.
We must remember that we have a permanent companion and friend in God, the Father of all souls.
The Supreme Soul is our eternal source of love and support.
Developing a relationship with God, by regularly remembering Him, fills us with His love and peace, frees us from dependence on human supports, and makes us strong enough to guide others to connect with Him and be liberated from all sorrow.
Rajyogi B K Brijmohan, Chief Spokesman of Brahma Kumaris Organization
Happiness, which is conditional, may be dependent on external circumstances or a beloved being whom you want to be with.
It is all relative, as for somebody bothered with scorching heat in the summer, swimming or a boat ride may become a reason to be happy while sumptuous food may make gluttons gleeful.
Then people derive happiness from wearing fragrances, high-end luxury clothing, and so on.
In a way, I have covered all the five indulgences a human being wishes to have by the virtue of five sense organs.
Now, given the current scenario of imposed lockdown, your freedom to be delightful in the usual ways has got curtailed.
So, when there is no way to go outside, the only way to go is inside! However, if you are bereft of an enriching experience of being with yourself, if you keep seeking the company of others, then you will find it hard to understand this.
Be more focussed on yourself and less bothered about the whereabouts of others.
This is what makes a spiritual person distinct from others.
He is aware of his mind and witnesses it with aloofness.
Being a witness is epitomized by the philosophy of Sankhya too.
You do not have to make an effort to be a witness, you are one already.
You are the absolute reality.
You are Brahmn! When you are aware of your reality, where is the need to seek joy from others?
Also, know that no worldly object or pleasure accompanies you when you enter that most blissful state called deep sleep.
It gives you a glimpse of what true state of meditation is like.
When you start meditating, the mind will slowly turn inward and you will realise that being with your true self can give you everlasting happiness, without being dependent on situations around you.
Besides, you can also turn self-sufficient by channelizing your creative energies for various art forms.
Anandmurti Gurumaa, founder of Rishi Chaitanya Ashram, Sonepat
Dear Riddhi,
No doubt the Covid-19 pandemic has devastated the entire world. A vast majority of the human population has been very badly affected. What is the way out? Should we keep worrying and get into anxiety, frustration, etc? No. Rather, it is time to come forward and take a lead role because you are young and are in a far more advantageous position compared to the older people. In your own family you must cheer up others with your positivity and enthusiasm. Please look at the world outside. Compared to millions of people you and your family are far better off. As far as exams are concerned, you are in the same position as others. Lakhs of students are suffering in the same way. You shouldn’t be anxious at all. Swami Vivekananda says that every one of us is blessed with infinite knowledge, power, glory, etc. You are the maker of your own destiny. The idle mind is devil’s workshop. Saturate your mind with powerful ideas of Swami Vivekananda. Please read these two books i.e.
“Letters of Swami Vivekananda” and “Lectures from Colombo to Almora”. You will feel tremendously energized and enthused. Even a very small booklet “Thoughts of Power” contains very powerful messages of Swami Vivekananda. You must have already prepared well for your Board exams. So, you need not spend too much time on academics. Keep just revising. But, use this opportunity to saturate yourself with Swami Vivekananda’s powerful man-making and character-building messages. You should never entertain any negative idea. Rather, you should be an inspiration for others. Because you have too much of free time, why not try a new hobby or spend quite some time in strengthening your existing skill i.e.
music, art, etc. You can also try your hand at cooking or helping your mother in household work. But, the main support and strength would come from the ideas of Swami Vivekananda.
Swami Shantatmananda, Head, Ramakrishna Mission, Delhi
When we think too much, it means that a part of us (the part that copes by “fight” response) is trying to flash thoughts at you in order to keep you vigilant as it feels you are under threat.
Our brain is wired to cope in this way by evolution.
This means that we need to do more activities that make us feel safe and calm.
Look up “activities to regulate the vagus nerve” and use that to soothe yourself.
The other important thing to do is socialise in whatever way you can, for example, going for walks etc with a mask.
Seeing some people is better than none.
Also try and organise game or movie nights online with your friends.
When we put our well-being into another person’s hands, we will always be susceptible.
A loss of a spouse is traumatic and nothing can take away your grief.
Self-support is the best support — this belief needs to be underscored in your mind.
What can I do, with where I am, and with what I have, is a good way to begin.
Unfortunately, too many of us do not ask accountability of ourselves when we find ourselves in distress.
All problems have solutions, albeit not necessarily the most optimal ones.
It is important to direct the mind to find those.
That means not allowing oneself to wallow and instead trying to find purpose in what would otherwise be a meaningless existence.
As Viktor Frankl said, “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
Issues of communication and consent are always important in intimate relationships, especially when your spouse’s comfort levels and concerns around touch and close contact have changed after being infected with Covid-19.
It’s also absolutely normal to not feel like engaging in any sexual activity during this time.
The anxiety that comes along with the pandemic, the stress of working from home while also managing the house and the worry she may feel for you can suppress her sexual drive.
Don’t force yourself to feel something that isn’t coming naturally.
Once things get better, your partner’s sexual drive may return to how it was before.
It’s important to talk with your partner about what kind of behaviour she wants to engage in first.
Remember that fondling, PDA (public display of affection), cuddling and kissing are also forms of physical intimacy, so enjoy them as much as possible.

Break the chain of viral fake news, TOI shows you how
Recently, before Maharashtra went under partial lockdown, a picture of a cop sporting a coronavirusshaped helmet went viral.
In the photograph, three men on a bike are seen ducking from the men in khakhi and the headline suggested that the state was about to go into complete lockdown from April 9 to 19.
In the heat of the second wave of the pandemic, misinformation around Covid-19 has been spreading almost as fast as the deadly virus.
If you too have contracted anxiety or vaccine hesitancy from consuming the constant avalanche of unverified news that has been tearing through family social media groups, worry not. TOI is here to help break the chain of fake news.
Starting today, Times Verified—an initiative by the Times of India—will debunk falsehoods circulating on social media.
All you have to do is save the WhatsApp number 9819432222 on your phone as “Times Verified” and share unverified or suspicious messages that ambush your social media messengers with us here.
As soon as we receive your message, our newly-formed expert panel comprising reporters, editors and representatives from the BMC and the government will get cracking.
The panel will contact the relevant authorities and sources to check the credibility of the news story and get back to you with a clear picture as soon as possible.
So, whether it is a dubious article about a man who has found a cure for Covid-19 or about a senior citizen who has developed severe complications after the second dose, make sure to send it to us for verification first before allowing it to shape your decisions and discussions.
And let our experts fight the contagion of panic caused by falsehoods—both innocent and wilful—by vaccinating you with the truth.
No home remedy for Covid-19: TOI debunks 100 viral fake news in 4 days
Please get your car refuelled as from tomorrow, the pumps have been instructed by the police to give fuel only to those cars who have the red, green or yellow stickers.” This was among the nearly 100 forwarded messages—ranging from the Maharashtra chief minister imposing complete lockdown to an Indian student’s ginger-pepper-honey home remedy for Covid—that TOI busted as fake in the last few days through its new campaign ‘Times Verified’.
Launched on April 17, the initiative aims to break the chain of viral misinformation and disinformation that has been infecting social media groups as rampantly as the virus is mutating in the real world.
Under this campaign, readers send unverified or suspicious messages doing the rounds of social media to this paper on the WhatsApp number 9819432222 and our expert panel—comprising reporters, editors and representatives from the BMC and the government—tap into their sources to verify its credibility.
Over the last four days since the campaign began, TOI received over 650 messages out of which nearly 100 turned out to be false.
“This message is fake,” cried the bold red stamp sent by our panel in response to fake forwards including one about an IIT student’s helpline for ambulance and over 80 fake remdesivir injection providers’ numbers.
In the wake of the second wave, even as the country grapples with a deadly contagion, help TOI vaccinate you with the truth.
Forward all dubious, anxiety-causing messages to our expert panel, and let the green tick in the Times Verified logo counter the tyranny of the grey curved arrow of forwards.
