Anxiety about ‘normal’

[Jen4813]

AIBU to feel anxiety about everything going back to ‘normal’ after lockdown? I am looking forward to some parts, but I also feel a lot of anxiety after being at home in my safe bubble with my family

I think its only normal to feel anxious, there will be a lot of uncertainty about safety, and expectation of further outbreaks of covid,
All I can advise, is what I will be doing. Going back to life as well as I can, with as little risk as possible until a jab comes out.

It's just worth preparing to make the risks as small as possible when things return to normal and educating your kids on what they'll need to do when we all return to normal.

I feel the same. I can't describe it but I feel calmer than I have done in years.
The thought of going back to the way life was before lockdown makes me sad.

I feel the same. Life is much simpler at the moment and feels more manageable. I am worried about going back to normal life where there is so much more to do, so many more options, and loads of people to interact with.
