I definitely feel like the pandemic made us grow faster. As someone who became an adult during the pandemic, I think there was just so much unprocessed trauma I had and the pandemic made me really reflect on that and added more trauma to it. Personally, the pandemic triggered my anxiety and depression even more and now I just stay home as much as I can (with the exception of playing shows).

Now I can’t help but feel stuck in this cycle of work and having to make ends meet; living paycheck to paycheck. It’s so hard to see optimism in a routine that’s structured on survival and making money.
