Emotions and Health
It is true that this pandemic has brought us many problems and surprises. We are forced to live in confinement everyday, wearing some equipment that we aren't accustomed to, and accomplishing the measures of the government. Everyone knows that we are fed up with this virus that has killed many lives without discriminating against anyone, also that our emotional health is decaying at that point of getting sick and despairing. This is not an obstacle to continue with our lives, on a new normality, because a day in the future we will be getting over this pandemic and also this will become history and a lesson for everyone.
In this project we wanted to know how everyone felt, so we made different questionnaires, and we could see that when this project started, a high percentage of people were stressed, 15 persons of the 34 answers. Only 9 people were happy, so we have a problem, and with the help of the science group we tried to know why this was happening? The possible reasons proposed were the following:
-
Due to lack of socialization
-
Due to the drastic lifestyle change
-
For fear of contracting the virus
And the most probable reason that people are suffering emotional problems is due to the drastic change in lifestyle, and it is true because we didn’t have time to adjust to our new lifestyle, bringing as a consequence the different reactions, and emotions. But not only we wanted to know how they feel or why do they feel this way, we wanted to help them, so we made different virtual games like kahoot, the mouse and the cheese and letter soup, and the results were positive, because more than a half (59%) of the class gave us really good answers.
So in conclusion, thanks to this experiment, we can know about the people, how they feel and how we can help them. Some alternative solutions or help, is to socialize more with your friends, it does not matter if it is online, it will help both of you, you can also try to practice sports in your house or do exercise, physical activity is good for your health, and enjoy the time you spent with your family, because when this is over, you may miss them later.
