Shock horror I have run out of tissues and there are none to buy. Just one of the things that we might run short of at the moment. So what are we to do? They are a token of how we have become reliant on certain products in our wonderfully materialistic lives.

To reduce the risk of spreading the contagion among the elderly, it’s time for hospice social workers to limit our visits to patients. Until COVID-19 contained, we should only be seeing hospice patients–whether at home or in long-term care facilities–when it’s necessary to do so in order to meet crucial short-term needs. Under normal circumstances, hospice patients benefit from frequent social worker visits even when there isn’t an urgent psychosocial concern.

If you’re feeling down from too much social distancing, how do you build a support network when you’re sheltering in place? Support networks are the sort of things you’re supposed to have already put into place for that time when you need them.

In a recent talk on the phenomenology of depressed mood the following thought occurred to me. But to first set the scene, the talk was on the difference between such phenomenological understandings of depression as stress a mis-attunement, and those which instead understand depression as a dis-attunement, between patient and world. In the former category we had the approaches of Aho, Ratcliffe and Svenaeus; in the latter we have the approaches of Fuchs, Stanghellini and Fernandez.

Placebo studies needs a theory of symbolic efficacy. How are unconscious expectancies and unconscious meaning-responses mobilised and how do they take their effect? What is it that enables Lévi-Strauss's Cuna mother-to-be to finally give birth only when the shaman has sung to her the long and involving - and consciously inassimilable - incantation about the recapture of her purba from the domain of Muu?

Yesterday I saw my immunologist. We discussed quite a few things, and she wants to see me continue social distancing, as I have been for six months, but also to try and get out more. That’ll be hard to do with this coronavirus pandemic we’re dealing with, but yesterday was just too good to not take her advice. I just went around the neighborhood. I was so weak—so little stamina after a long, hard winter of sickness.
