The tweet was sent out Friday afternoon. a tool thought could help people cope during the pandemic. Turns out it completely backfired on them.
The BC Self-care Bingo card, something folks can use to help manage some stress & anxiety during COVID-19. The post also offering a link to find many free & low-cost options.
But then the comments came rolling in.
Some saying ” Appreciate the sentiment, but we can’t self-care our way out of the pandemic. ” and ” I am sure this is meant well but tone-deaf. You can’t meditate your way out of systemic issues”
One person, even revamping the card to this “Fixed it for you”
A short time later, the BC Government Twitter account posted this:
“COVID-19 has caused mental, emotional, and financial stress. Our post was meant to give people ideas of how they can take care of themselves and their neighbors and point them to free and low-cost mental health supports. We’ve seen positive feedback, but also heard we missed the mark. We know there’s a lot more work to do to get through this — we’re committed to doing the work. ”

CKPG reached out for a response but was unable to get a comment. Not all the responses were bad, however, there was some major digging to be done. But, there were some people who thought it was a great idea saying:
” I don’t know why people are dissing this. I think it’s thoughtful and helpful.” and “Totally fine, the sentiment is there. Meant to spark an idea, not cure all your life’s ailments. Notice how “get offended online” isn’t on there”
The most important note to make is this, if you are struggling and you need help there are local resources available to anyone in need here in Prince George.
