Normal human responses to a global pandemic that do not need to be pathologized or treated as abnormal: Food and eating challenges & difficulties Resurgence... of compulsive or addictive behaviours Obsessive or instrusive thoughts, memories or fears Generalised fear, anxiety, panic & overwhelm Depression, dissociation, shutdown, freeze, hopelessness Feelings of abandonment or loneliness or isolation Sense of loss of control or powerlessness. Feeling confused Anxiety around money, shelter, food, and other survival needs Past traumas being triggered, activated or re-experienced Health anxiety heightened (about Covid19 and otherwise) Feeling unheard or unseen amidst the flood of stories Feeling like existing chronic needs are being ignored Thoughts and feelings about death and dying New and old grief surfacing Feelings of anger, irritation and frustration Caring for everyone to own detriment. Compassion fatigue Feeling exhausted, fatigued, unmotivated, lethargic Hyper-focus, surges of energy, keeping 'doing' to distract Immune system depleted, other illnesses starting, chronic flares (list not exhaustive) AND if you do need support with any of it, that's okay too.
