How to maintain sanity during isolation

Covid-19 Isolation Advice

Duncan Falconer has taught the subject of managing imprisonment for many years. 

His students were mostly people who might find themselves the victims of kidnap situations, where they might be incarcerated on their own or in small groups for months and possibly years.

Isolation for the corona virus is clearly not the same as being imprisoned but the principles of how to manage the psychological challenges are the same.

Duncan has helpfully published a list of advisories on how to manage isolation during these troubled times.  Here at EW, we felt this was an article worth sharing. To quote a published comment:

Some very good advice particularly for people who are suffering with mental health issues.

Many of the tips and advice are taken from the experiences of people who have been in forced isolation for long periods such as prisoners (notably prisoners of war) and kidnap victims held in confinement. As Duncan says, many of the advisories to consider are common sense.
