1/6 Layers of #publichealth precautions and #PhysicalDistancing can leave us all feeling a bit of #COVIDfatigue. For many, there are emotional and psychological implications to staying physically apart from others. #COVID19 #COVIDCoping

2/6 These emotional and psychological impacts can lead to feelings of loneliness and social isolation. There is support and help; #TakeThatStep for #COVIDCoping and remember, you can practice #PhysicalDistancing and still be social.

3/6 I urge everyone to continue reaching out by various means, including virtually and especially to support those living alone or away from family members or loved ones. #HelpOthers #OlderAdults

4/6 This can be an opportunity for younger Canadians and others who are familiar with social media and virtual platforms to reach out and help others in your family or community who may not be as tech-savvy. #Volunteer #OlderAdults

5/6 #PhysicalDistancing should not mean emotional distancing. During #COVID19, we need to all try our very best to #StayConnected#TogetherApart #COVIDCoping

6/6 If you or loved ones are experiencing social, mental or emotional challenges during #COVID19, connect to @CdnTogether for mental health and substance use support, resources and counselling with a mental health professional. #TakeThatStep
