So many changes have occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, and as we constantly adjust to those changes, pandemic fatigue can arise. Neda Gould, Ph.D., an assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, is available for interviews to talk about what pandemic fatigue is, how it impacts your health, and how being home and being stressed can often lead to exhaustion. Gould can discuss how to think creatively about the activities you enjoy, how to meet social needs in a different way and how to find new methods to energize. She can also advise on self-care strategies.
