Covid lockdowns did NOT help.

I probably might be still at my old job but further advanced and happier (everyone might've been happier) if it weren't for the impact of the lockdowns. The one upshot was that at the time, it paved the way for me to stay in this country permanently. I can't keep blaming the lockdowns now though, I do need to move on. Next week might bring some resolution about some options in that regard

it's only recently I thought that maybe my depression was in part caused by the lockdowns

now I can finish recovering :)
