Getting anxiety again

[Kkakdugi]

Hi guys, I was doing fine for awhile but recently I have been paying attention to the news again. There is just so much hate the US right now, it’s so depressing to see. My husband and I are currently living with my in-laws in Hawaii right now. Hawaii is pretty chill, but I am just worried for my family who is in Los Angeles. I am constantly worried that they are going to get harassed because of they are Asian due to the pandemic.
