Am AIBU to think Covid has changed us all?

I'm reading so many posts from people saying they're seeing their DH/DP's in a new light, and not for the better, people who are afraid to meet family, send their DC to school, just struggling with every day life to the point their MH is breaking down. Who would have thought a disease would do this to us?

It’s not the virus that has caused many of those problems. It’s our reaction to it.

I'm sorry your friends so afraid, I think Covid brought out a lot of peoples fears.

Whilst I personally don't think I've changed, I think this is the case for a huge number of people. The government did such a good job instilling fear at the start. I work with a lady who keeps an emergency hospital bag by her bed just in case she contracts covid. She also cried during general chit chat when I spoke about having gone out to eat the Sunday before work... Absolutely bonkers!
