Quarantine or poor social isolation, can have negative implications for people's physical and emotional health. Therefore, to know the psychological and emotional reactions as a result of voluntary isolation based on the reason and number of home exits, the routine and the performance of pleasant activities during voluntary isolation at home by COVID-19 in the general population of Mexico is important. People who went out only what was necessary got the best scores in the different variables. In addition, a significant difference was found in most of the variables, in favor of those who reported having done pleasant activities in the last week, which they had not done for a long time. Developing interventions and promoting pleasant activities to cope with psychological distress is suggested.
