OK so obviously not alone in this ,however DD had run out of Tampons and I had to go and get some for her .Felt really anxious at Supermarket and on way as felt worried about driving (Local shops out ).A child was in there ,and some older people but not many at all .My Eczema has returned (caused by stress) and I am cleaning my hands with Anti Bac on way in and out.Scratched my face without thinking ,and washed again when in home .Poor hands are like grade 1 sandpaper! Just wondering how everyone else is coping ATM .Usually I am fairly laid back ,but my heart was pounding and I had Stomach Pains! I do a big shop on a Saturday and was not planning on going out mid week. Any tips on how you are coping would be welcomed .

It might help to break down what exactly is stressing you? Is it catching Covid-19, or giving it to a vulnerable family member, or the vulnerable people you saw in the supermarket, or going out more than you had actually planned to, or getting in trouble for being out?

I think probably a bit of each really! I am worried about catching it and giving it to family members mostly ,and was unprepared for the journey as well I think .Had planned to just go on Saturday and had shopped accordingly ,so felt a bit out of control with an ad hoc visit which I couldnt do anything about!
