Scared about lockdown restrictions being lifted

NAS73354

Hi, I'm Chris and I'm new here.

I feel scared about the lifting of lockdown restrictions. I'm on the spectrum, I'm 53. With lockdown restrictions, I didn't have to deal with the outside world too much. But as lockdown restrictions are being eased, the impatience of everyone else is very scary. Are there any fellow autistics who feel the same as me. 

I am married with no children. I live in Bermondsey.

Thanks

  • Hi Chris! I can totally understand. While I'd like this all to end, people stop being sick and dying, and indeed some restrictions are can be horrible to the people affected - e.g. you can't see a very sick relative or friend in a hospital, or visit your old parents in another country and let them meet the grandchildren, I also do enjoy the slow pace and working from home.

    I recently saw a video of our new office and I was horrified, so big, lots of colours, and surely lots of people. It was so hard to be in the noisy office in the times "before", not looking forward to that at all. Already not talking about commuting in crowds to get there.
