Russia conflict is terrifying me

[Miracle29]

I've seen another of threads on here and to be honest to scared to look through them. I've got my 2 children off for half term and encouraged them to watch films and play as there is so much on russia. My teenage ds has come to me today dating its all over the news on his phone etc and he's scared and to be honest I am. I won't show that infront of my children but I am. I had a massive fear of war when I was little, no idea where it came from but I was always asking questions about war and if we will die etc. My anxiety on this since boris speech has heightened and I'm so scared now. What do we do if there is war? Will there be a war? I'm just so scared. I know there's alot of people who are scared but please put my mind at ease.

@BettyOBarley thankyou that's really kind of you and helped me understand the reality of it a little more thankyou.

Well I've stayed off news reports as much as possible and kept my head in the present until I was taking a walk and saw an old neighbour, got chatting and she mentioned the recent news. I stayed calm as I was with my ds, but ds did hear this and is now panicking a lot. He doenst know my fear and I've done well to put his mind at ease but honestly the latest headings are absolutly sickening.
