Psychologist
Honey Langcaster-James, It s heartening to see that our primary concern throughout the pandemic has remained the wellbeing of our loved ones, however, it seems that our concern for others may have come at a cost to looking after ourselves. We ve been neglecting our own health-related needs and eating for emotional reasons, so now people are anxious about the weight they ve put on during the pandemic.
