1 month under state-imposed lockdown now and I'm starting to lose my grasp on time. The days are becoming meaningless, my sleep schedule is non-existent and it feels like I've been stuck inside far longer.

I need a walk...

My inbox is always open if you need mutual support.

Take some time to try relax, stay calm, warm and hydrated. Best of luck in the days to come.

Over 2,000 dead in my state.  It looks like the curve is flattening, but people are being complete morons and protesting the quarantine.  People, it's clearly working and you're just gonna get yourself killed.
