Work Being the Only Support System During the Pandemic

Listen as a UW student describes how work became his only support system during the pandemic. He discusses how isolated he was in terms of friends and family because he lived alone, didn’t have family in the area, and his friends didn’t want to risk hanging out. Nevertheless, he still had to go into work.

So I didn’t really have a support system which I think really also weighed on me a lot.
