I completely understand! However I would recommend try to have a schedule or follow a time table made by you yourself! Realistically, keep certain topics or chapters you want to do finish off everyday, keep small portions but do it everyday! It will help you a lot. We can discuss about it here too

@TurboC I am approaching the same way as suggested by you ma'am but still uncertainty overthinking tends to arise

@ThatDisha I understand completely! If you are a 12th standard student, I would recommend start by just making your bed in the morning! Try to avoid watching any show at night, or limit the time for your shows.

It has come with its downsides and upsides. I save time on commutation. I hate to drive to work daily in chaotic traffic. But I miss my physical classes, live interactions with the students and fun filled learning. Online classes are dry ones. My daughters are in 10 and 12. It's uncertain about board exams next year too. So students are going through anxiety. I wish things would get better soon.

@TurboC Delta strain is really worrisome. Bangalore has quite a few cases of this strain and it's concerning.

Incidentally, starting today, my country will implement a strict lockdown for the next 14 days, as a result of the increasing number of people infected with Covid-19. It's just that I'm not sure that this can reduce the rate of Covid-19, because it turns out that there are still many people around us who ignore and don't even wear masks when leaving the house. It really worries us that we will suffer the same fate as India.
