SOCIAL: the effects of prolonged physical distancing
three main issues I deal with in this episode are physical distance on public transportation, continued isolation of covid patients and hospitals and how that could be affecting them psychologically AND medically. And the way physical distancing affects us in general. I express my extreme concern about prolonged loss of physical contact and in-person events. Not only does this affect people making efforts to recover from social anxiety and agoraphobia, it concerns me, psych-socially: our barrier to make human contact which is our inherent human need!
