Anxiety is so bloody high

[Forfoxsake29]

And Dh thinks I’m being ridiculous and everything will be ok, we will survive and we have each other.

But I feel so sad. I feel sad that my youngest might not get the last few days at play school before she starts school, that she won’t get to see her friends/her teachers. That she won’t get her birthday party that she hasn’t stopped talking about daily. Even today she said she wants to play pass the parcel at her party 😩.

I’m worried that we don’t know when we will be allowed to do normal things again? Will we be able to go on holiday in the summer?
We had so many happy memories planned for this year.

I know I’m being selfish, I really am.

I’m sad that I won’t be able to see my dad for a while. He’s high risk and lives on his own in his bungalow with carers going in. I’m worried about his health. I’m worried about him being alone for a long time.

😩😩

I agree this is incredibly unsettling. The impact on our national and individual lives is enormous.

It’s the uncertainty of it all. When will it be “normal” again?

I really think your husband is right. Everything is going to be fine for most of us. We just need to dig deep and find our strength. Get creative about your daughters birthday party. Set up Skype with your dad and call him every day. I have found that getting up and having a hot shower and dressing in decent clothes has helped my mental health. I feel stronger and more capable. Best of luck OP! 🌷
