32523: Wytham Woods

online resource
posted on 2023-12-08, 22:07 authored by Lockdown2020 and Beyond Project

Studying in a tiny claustrophobic bedroom since March has been challenging. Regularly driving to Wytham Woods and exploring the vast grounds with my husband has had a very positive effect on my mental well-being. In the summer the sounds of the wind in the trees reminded me of where I grew up, Austria. How did I cope with having to shield (health), considerable health issues and the death of my mother? A daily study pattern/rhythm; being fully involved in college life as an MCR rep; making new friends and maintaining friendships; setting new goals (applying for a DPhil), just keeping going and being kind to myself. This is a year like no other and it will pass. I have learned that I can cope with whatever life throws at me, and that people are there for me when I need them: I just have to ask.
