Hello Bubble, we discussed this for several days and in many ways you are making yourself ill.

To put this in perspective, what can you do, you cannot say to the virus, leave me alone, The viruses job is to spread that is how it grows, sad to say we are the food for the virus in simple terms, so you cannot do anything about it, if you catch it, you have a high chance of recovery very few actually die. We all can also get flu especially as we get older. We may have injections to prevent this illness, most people recover, some die. I am nearly seventy and my risks are higher to die from this virus or even a flue virus, it is not worth worrying about illness it is all to do with life in general, we get ill, sometimes we may die. We cannot generally negotiate to receive more days, months or years, we actually need to accept our concerns and move on through life on the understanding eventually we all get taken down by something, or you need also consider most illnesses we move on from the prognosis is positive.

Hello Rachel

To be honest you are not alone. I get my tests done next week, they are trying out different tests to check for a negative, positive result. So hopefully I will be ok

I was collecting my new glasses and I had to wear a face mask, the problem was the glasses kept steaming up so I had to take it off so they could fit them. They were wearing face screens, and we were within the two metre gap apart, and that still concerned me as well. Mind they were early seeing me and I was back at the car before my appointment time.

We are all worried in some ways, life is full of risks and sometimes we need to understand that and just move on

Hi Rachael. I’m sorry your having a tough time, it’s so horrible for us all. But I’d like to share with you, my experience since lockdown. I too suffered everyday worrying and so scared and paranoid, to the point of having panic attacks, and having several tests at hospital due to feeling like I was having a heart attack! I actually suggest you talk to your doctor, and get some support. I did just this, and got an online CBT programme that covers Covid 19. I also started sertraline ( antidepressants) as it got to much! This took the anxiety away, and taught me to accept these tough times, and live each day best we can! We are all in this together! We will get through this, and scientists are working around the clock to develop a vaccine.

I wish you love and best wishes!

Lizzy.

Thank you Xo

It's OK, not to go out yet. Drugs are good - just search Coronavirus drugs in newspaper , USA and hopefully that will make you feel better - also vaccine research. Nearly there so all will be well! Just wait!

Hope you are feeling better. Totally get what your saying. I too feel this way. Trying so many things to get over my anxiety and feel better. Most days are ok. Today, not so much. Feel like I'm coming down with a cold, so now my anxiety is getting bad. Anyway, hope you feel better.

Not what you're looking for?
