Each family has its own issues and, of course, they must be taken into account. However, there are some general rules that would be useful for any family:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Each of us has their own \u201csafety margin\u201d, or their individual self-adjusting potential. For some, the situation of being &#171;locked up&#187; is a break from the daily rush, and for some, it\u2019s a painful imprisonment. Those who find it easier can help those for whom this period is a serious challenge, but it\u2019s important to do it right:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Don\u2019t invalidate other people\u2019s feelings <em>(why\u2019re you all wound up, just relax!\u201d, \u201cyou can\u2019t be that sensitive, it\u2019s not like you\u2019ve been taken to a desert island!\u201d, \u201cI\u2019m not whining, and you shouldn\u2019t either\u201d, \u201cSome people have it worse, all we\u2019ve got to do is stay home!\u201d).<\/em><\/li><li>Don\u2019t pretend that nothing is happening \u2013 but it\u2019s important not to be overly dramatic and not make a mountain out of a molehill, either.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Panic, anxiety and dysphoric mood are contagious, so it\u2019s important not to let them in, by supporting those who right now are having a harder time.<\/p>\n\n\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div class=\"alt-notice\" align=\"center\"><b><font color=\"white\">UNLOCKING MENTAL WELLBEING<\/font><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Self-therapy can be an essential tool for personal growth and self-improvement.<br \/>Browse through our <a href=\"https:\/\/mindspa-dev.ru\/it\/courses\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>courses<\/u><\/a> and see the positive changes they can bring to your life.<\/p>\n<p>You are not sure where to begin?<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<p class=\"product woocommerce add_to_cart_inline example-cart-button\" style=\"border: 0px;\"><a class=\"button product_type_simple add_to_cart_button ajax_add_to_cart\" href=\"https:\/\/mindspa-dev.ru\/en\/psy-tests\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">TAKE A FREE TEST<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"buttons\" style=\"border: 0px;\"><a class=\"button product_type_simple add_to_cart_button ajax_add_to_cart\" href=\"https:\/\/mindspa.typeform.com\/to\/za9nGe8T\" rel=\"nofollow\"><small><u>or get a free consultation<\/u><\/small><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. It\u2019s important to exhibit your feelings and not to retire into your shell. If you\u2019re \u201cbreaking\u201d, talk to those close to you, and if you know that there\u2019s no support there, use your phone or social media to talk to friends and kindred spirits. If you don\u2019t take care of your emotional state, the likelihood of &#171;lashing out&#187; at those close to you and aggravating an already difficult situation increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Try not to fight. Put off the accumulated issues and disputes with each other for another time &#8212; it\u2019ll just make the situation worse now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. If the situation does nevertheless become tense, you feel a conflict looming, and you want to lash out with your irritation and talk back, try to put yourself in your relative\u2019s shoes &#8212; think about what could worry him, why he\u2019s acting like this now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Try to be considerate of positive little things: thank your mom for a nice dinner, compliment your mother-in-law\u2019s new apron. It\u2019ll score additional points for the productivity cup, which are far from unwanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Ensure that the elderly relatives have the opportunity to talk to others through the Internet. We can talk on Skype and through messengers, whereas they might not be able to. Organize a video call for your mom or grandma with their friends &#8212; that could really help and create a positive attitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Don\u2019t forget that you can try to make your stay more comfortable, but alleviating everyone\u2019s anxieties is out of your hands. This is a joint challenge which can also be an important experience of overcoming the conditions together.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re continuing to talk about how to make your forced stay with relatives less traumatic, and, if possible, even comfortable (if you\u2019ve just joined us, please read the previous articles).
