As mentioned by some in the comments, the thing that drained me the most (probably more than the isolation itself) was that I could see the vast majority of people being so compliant and accepting drastic reduction in freedoms without raising a finger and even encouraging the government to be more drastic.
Because of this it has now become trivial to impose new lockdown measures. "We have a few cases there? ok, we just place this under strict lockdown". It's become so easy for them to cut through freedoms.
Maybe some measures are needed, even strict ones, but the lack of serious discussion surrounding it is terrifying for me.
To give an example, where I live, they instated a nighttime curfew and mask wearing even outdoors. They did this when there were 10.000 cases a day.
We now have around 2-3000 cases (majority of them in some areas only) and still have the same measures country-wide.
A right is easy to loose and hard to gain back I guess...
