Not being able to be with my family or friends has had a negative impact on my mood and has caused me to retreat into myself and not only self isolate physically,  but just switch off completely. I have been terrified of my family catching covid, and the more people go out, the more scared I become that the virus will spread.","The situation has also affected me physically very much so. I’ve had much less exercise that I was previously getting, and I have also put on several pounds which has added to me feeling rubbish.

Social media platforms are also a way to see what’s happening in the world - this being through the news sites on twitter like sky or bbc, or through journalists and tv news shows like Good morning Britain - I think it’s good to be aware of bothe local, national and international news.

I think it’s great that they are free and that they can help us stay connected with the people we love and care about. In all honesty I havnt heard anything negative about social media accounts. I think I read a news headline lately that said either twitter or Facebook would make it possible that from now on all their staff would be able to work from home in the future. I think that’s a really positive thing. I’ve marked down for 1 because I do worry the amount of online bullying and trolls, even with Boris Johnson on his speech on Sunday, he got slashed on social media after that. It makes me worry because everyone has an inner person and I think about Caroline flack, I don’t want that to happen to anyone else, but I fear that with social media and bullying it very probably will.",Never,Unchanged,"I have never watched porn, I don’t really think it would work for me.
