Does anyone know if there are changes to the photo requirements for visa applications? I'm safely quarantined at home & afraid to venture out to take photos... Very stressed out by this process rn

I use phone apps to take photos for my visa and passport application all the times. Just go to your iTunes/Android store and download a visa/passport photo app. You get to choose the dimension of your choice, or any default dimensions. They even have frames setting up for you to pose. Super helpful! You then take your photo files and upload them to your nearest WalgreenPhoto location. Then wait for 30 minutes before going to Walgreen to pick up your photos. Cost less than $0.50/each. My photos never get kicked back for not meeting requirements.

I have a constant fear that my dates are just flirting/saying sweet things without meaning. I fear investing into them, getting excited for our date, etc. because I feel like they’re just playing me & will ghost me at any moment. I used to fall fast when I was younger, and now I’m terrified I can’t trust my intuition. Had someone love bomb me a year ago & I have no clue what to believe is true (do they really enjoy me, or are they just saying that?). Can anyone relate or know how to fix this?
