When the emotional roller coaster of stay-at-home orders began, many of us felt equal parts terrified and excited. We feared the reality of working and learning (concurrently) from home, but we also dreamed of vanquishing all of those closets, drawers, and boxes that have lingered for years.

That burst of motivation to organize was, for many of us, short-lived.Amid an overwhelming amount of change, fear, and distraction, we did not clear out the attic or the garage — and that is okay.

In hindsight, we all needed a few weeks to adjust to process some deep concerns, figure out how to work effectively from home, and learn about helping the kids with online homeschooling.

Why Chronic Burnout Affects You to Your Core
With working from home more possible and prevalent than ever, the boundaries between professional and personal lives continue to erode. This always-on reality is a recipe for burnout. And when burnout goes on long enough, it can cause what’s known as moral injury, or damage that comes from living against one’s own values. Here, Amina Naru and Pamela Stokes Eggleston, co-founders of Retreat to Spirit, explain the concept of moral injury and offer some remedies for it.

Finding My Own Tempo Amidst a Cacophony
When I went to the Central Park Zoo this winter, the best part was seeing the sea lions speed around their glass-enclosed pool. Watching them was like looking through a window into my brain, where my thoughts race in concentric circles, barely missing collisions. Some of them climb to the top of the rocks and bark, but others are tame, rolling around and asking for treats. All these thoughts — the speed racers, the barking attention-seekers, and the belly-up docile ones — coexist simultaneously. I never know which one to pay attention to. I stared at the sea lions long after the other spectators left.

During Quarantine, Be the Friend You Once Needed in Life With Chronic Illness
When I was in high school, I had to take almost all of my classes at home due to chronic illness. I spent a lot of time scared about my health and its unknowns, not knowing when or how my life could change next. Between my extended absence at school and my medical limitations, I very rarely saw my friends. The word “isolation” came up a lot. Now I am hearing it again on a daily basis — on TV, on social media, and in conversation. It brings me back to a past that I thought I had escaped.

Why Getting an ADHD Diagnosis at Age 30 Was a Gift
This year, right before my 30th birthday, I received a surprise gift — a diagnosis of ADHD. The diagnosis was an accidental finding, discovered while completing cognitive testing for an unrelated illness. After 30 years of living with undiagnosed ADHD, I have no regrets for not getting diagnosed sooner in life — but I do have to admit that it feels impactful to finally get an official label for my learning differences. Here is what the diagnosis of ADHD means to me:

Calm and Connected Sweepstakes: Attend a PTS Coaching Workshop Session for Free!
There’s no question that stay-at-home orders have caused stress, anxiety, and loneliness. But for some parents of children with ADHD, a silver lining is beginning to appear: Fewer activities, obligations, and errands means more time for game nights, family walks, and time spent just “being together.” That’s not to say behavior challenges have diminished (they haven’t) or discipline is any easier (it’s not), but sometimes focusing on the pleasant surprises can get us through a tough day.

Closing the Gaps in Distance Learning: Strategies to Meet Educators’ Toughest Challenges
Remote learning during a global pandemic is challenging for everyone, but especially for children with special needs, multi-lingual learners, and other school-dependent students who rely on supports and structures to learn. As an assistant principal and history teacher at a New York City high school, I am asked often about the challenges that this unique learning situation presents for educators. I am not an expert in remote learning, but the conversations and struggles at my school may shed some light and offer solutions to educators during this extraordinary time.

Social Power and Quarantine in Polyamorous Relationships
Recent arguments on Reddit and other social media outlets over the appropriateness of continuing to travel (across town or across the country) to see partners during the COVID-19 quarantine have prompted a virtual community town hall. Chrissy Holman, polyamory community organizer and Communications Lead for the American Psychological Association Division 44 Task Force on Consensual Non- monogamy,  coordinated a panel of health professionals and community activists to discuss the impact COVID-19 can have on CNM communities, and how to avoid becoming a vector of transmission. To access a wealth of information from 14 experts and community members, you can find a recording of the COVID-19 Polyamory Townhall here.

What I’ve Learned From My New Officemate (aka My Wife) in Quarantine
The first fight was about music. She wanted pop and hip-hop; I wanted classical. A couple of hours later, we sparred over coffee. I was drinking too much, she claimed. I’m not drinking enough, I retorted, practically mainlining espresso at breakneck speed. This was Day One with my new officemate, otherwise known as the wonderful woman I married in the long-ago age of November 2019.

How the COVID-19 Quarantine Is Helping My Son With Autism Develop Life Skills
When the quarantine first started, I spent the first week trying to replicate what my son Dominic, who is on the autism spectrum, did at school on a daily basis. Unfortunately, he had a seizure that Friday, March 20. The next week, I let him do whatever he wanted because I had a huge case of mom “guilt” that I had caused it somehow. Secretly, in the back of my mind, I was hoping the quarantine would last two weeks and things could go back to the way they were. As we all know, that hasn’t happened yet.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), eight out of 10 deaths reported in the U.S. have been in adults age 65 and older.1 (Those over 80 with chronic health conditions such as diabetes and heart or lung diseases are at greatest risk.)
