Notre vie quotidienne a été bouleversée par la COVID. Si on peut considérer que ceux qui vivent en couple sont privilégiés, il ne faut pas minimiser l’impact que le confinement peut avoir sur eux. Comment composer avec la maladie ou la peur de la maladie, le stress de chacun, l’irritabilité que cela entraîne, la perte d’autres sources de satisfaction, la restriction des autres relations, les responsabilités parfois augmentées, la conciliation avec le travail ? Les tensions qui existaient déjà dans le couple ne sont pas non plus disparues. Au cours de cette conférence, nous aborderons les pistes de solution qui peuvent permettre aux couples de mieux traverser cette crise.
