Maybe you can’t shake the feeling that something horrible is going to happen. Or you feel that that a lack of your control of a situation is going to result in danger or even terrible things happening. Anxiety and uneasiness are with you almost always. Irritated, annoyed, depressed…You can’t understand why you can’t seem to move past ‘it’, no matter how hard you have tried. Perhaps COVID-19 is affecting you in ways you didn’t expect or making other symptoms worse. Can you relate to any or all of this? Please know…you are not alone. I have worked with many people for whom this is true.
