Even though we're in a new year, our daily routine and its accompanying COVID-19 restrictions may seem repetitive. If we're not careful, monotony can lead to depression and all its unpleasant knock-on effects. But according to HuffPost, psychologists say there are ways to deal with boredom. First, plan fun things you can do, even if you're in lockdown, like reading books or painting a wall.
