Dealing with CORONAVIRUS ANXIETY (COVID-19)

CoronaVirus (COVID-19) & Anxiety; How we can manage our anxieties during this global pandemic? Many of you have reached out about this, sharing how you are feeling super stressed out, constantly on edge, or even hypervigilant. First I want to let you know that all of these feelings are completely normal and are warranted responses to all of the threats we hear each and every day via the news and social media. Our nervous system is always assessing our environment for safety and/or danger. If it senses a threat to our safety it will help us focus on it so we can be ready to take action against the threat if needed. Really this helps keep us alive. If we are always on the lookout for something or someone who could harm us, then we are prepared to act when the threat becomes imminent.Dr. Porges study https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1868418/UNICEF Links https://www.unicef.org/stories/novel-coronavirus-outbreak-what-parents-should-know https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019 https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html1. Wash your hands frequently – including every time you enter the home or office, after shaking hands with other people, after you cough or sneeze, and before you eat – using soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub 2. Cover your mouth and nose with flexed elbow or tissue when coughing or sneezing, dispose of used tissue immediately, and wash your hands 3. Avoid close contact with anyone who has cold or flu-like symptoms; and 4. Seek medical care early if you or your child has a fever, cough or difficulty breathing.I’m Kati Morton, a licensed therapist making Mental Health videos!JOURNALING CLUB Every Tuesday & Friday I post a journal prompt to help keep you motivated and working on yourself! https://www.youtube.com/katimorton/joinOrdering my book Are u ok? http://bit.ly/2s0mULyMy Amazon Suggestions: https://www.amazon.com/shop/katimortonONLINE THERAPY I do not currently offer online therapy, but I have partnered with BetterHelp who can connect you with a licensed, online counselor in your area: https://tryonlinetherapy.com/katimortonPATREON Do you want to help me support the creation of mental health videos? https://www.katimorton.com/kati-morton-patreon/PODCASTS Opinions That Don’t Matter! & Ask Kati Anything! video: youtube.com/c/OpinionsThatDontMatteraudio: https://opinonsthatdontmatter.buzzsprout.com/ https://askkatianything.buzzsprout.com/Help Caption Our Videos http://www.youtube.com/timedtext_cs_panel?c=UCzBYOHyEEzlkRdDOSobbpvw&tab=2 BUSINESS EMAIL linnea@toneymedia.comMAIL PO Box #665 1223 Wilshire Blvd. Santa Monica, CA 90403PLEASE READ If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please call a local emergency telephone number or go immediately to the nearest emergency room.
