Over the past several weeks, my anxiety level has increased (due to the pandemic). Even though I won't have it nearly as bad as the vast majority of Americans, I am having a lot of anxiety. This week has been very difficult to focus. Honestly, I am embarrassed to admit that I could not focus on work today.
I think anxiety / fear is the only reasonable reaction to such a historic and widespread disease. Weren't people who lived through the plague fearful? They must have been.
I think that acknowledging a problem is the first step toward dealing with it. I am a pathologist and I am scared of this pandemic.
However, I am also blessed to be alive and healthy, blessed to be in America, blessed to be a pathologist, blessed to have a loving family, and I have many other blessings. Sometimes when I count my blessings, I feel better. I hope this helps someone out there who is scared.
