Since you are 1 year post delivery, you can have multiple changes in your mood. On top of that we have the COVID pandemic. I totally understand the concern about your child, but you need to get back to normal life. Take all precautions while going out. Try to mingle with family and stay occupied.

It's understandable to feel so when one is confined inside 4 walls for so long.. We need to be careful, not engulfed by fear. Like it's suggested above, do take precautions and start doing things which are pleasurable to you slowly. Engage in online classes of any hobbies that you like, go for walks outside maintaining distance, talk to friends regularly. If none of these are helping, plz seek consultation. Depression may be a possibility and needs treatment
