I know the feeling very, very well. It might be an idea to give yourself some sort of creative outlet to try and drag you away from social media a bit -- writing poetry or learning an instrument or something -- so long as you don't see that as "work" that you "have" to do, but instead as a new shiny hobby. Also remember that you *are* helping people out who need it, by staying locked down. You're doing your bit to make sure that people like me are eventually able to go out again, get on a bus, go to the cinema, and all those other things that make life worth living. The hardship it causes you means you're doing more than enough just by doing that.
