So many tragic things have happened in a short space of time to people I know. It’s freaking me out.
It’s actually my child’s class at school. Three tragedies have happened in that class and they’re not even in the juniors yet.
I can’t explain why I feel this way. It’a only a small class too, so feels even more consuming. Obviously I feel horrendous for those who are going through it (family members & close ones) but it’s a constant reminder of how fragile life is. I’m hyper sensitive anyway so it just feeds into my anxiety.
