“How I managed to keep in touch with my friends is we tried to call each other and text on WhatsApp. I messaged them and they call me and we talk to each other and check on each other and ask about changes in their districts and we share our thoughts and opinions. How I’m keeping contact with them is I saved their contact information on my email so I can never lose them. We check on each other and therefore I don’t lose their contact information. I’m never alone, I’m always with people and my family. I never feel isolated. This is how I fight the feeling of being isolated. Firstly, I opened a YouTube channel so that I could share the information I learned regarding life. General information such as what you’re supposed to eat in order to avoid weight gain and healthy food with bodybuilding contents. I share it with my friends through a link and they watch it on YouTube. I do this in my free time so that I feel less isolated and idle.”
