“I m technically exempt from wearing a mask because I have asthma and genuinely find it difficult to breathe when there is something covering my mouth. However, I now feel so intimidated by the large bouncers and plentiful signs barring entry without a face covering that I have started covering my mouth with a scarf.
“Shopping has become such an unpleasant experience that I tend to flash in and out as fast as possible. I don t make eye contact with or speak to anyone and don t buy anything I don t need. I would have my shopping delivered but it is impossible to get a slot for weeks. No wonder everyone is becoming stressed, depressed and frustrated.”
