I cannot take this anymore....

[SomethingM1ss1ng]

Daughter 3 started school on the 3rd...now at home due to blocked nose. No cough or temperature but I decided to keep her in
A). So she gets enough rest
B). Not wanting to send her in to spread whatever this is

I’m really struggling mentally, haven’t slept or eaten and struggling to concentrate on work. I’m petrified of her catching it or passing it on to me and husband.

The reason we have no one to call upon for help or support. No friends no family. I keep thinking that she will end up in some foster care system if me and husband end up in ventilators or dead.

We are a BAME family so high risk but not front line workers..both in corporate jobs.

I don’t think I can do this anymore..I keep thinking it’s only going to get worse - if this is not COVID then the next one will be...

I think a large majority of kids who have started school now have a cough, it's what happens at school, kids get coughs and colds all the time. Covid is being very successfully treated now compared to the unknown early days...you are very unlikely to die unless you are obese with co-morbidities. Try to manage your anxiety with perspective...
