People with anxiety share how this hell year — from the pandemic to the racial injustice — has affected their mental health.
People who already lived with anxiety before the pandemic explain how 2020 has affected their condition.
“But as the days have gone by and isolation has become the new normal, I’ve found that I’m having fewer high-anxiety days overall. There’s been less daily stress as I have fewer engagements and obligations. Situations that exacerbated my social anxiety are practically non-existent. Although danger seems to lurk beyond the front door, my home feels like a sanctuary. I do worry that it will be challenging for me to adjust and rejoin the world once there’s a vaccine.” —8.
“There’s also the rise of racial inequality events: the murders of Black people by the police; the messages that the president sends to white supremacists, encouraging them to be violent towards us; the children in cages due to current immigration laws. Every time I hear something that has been done or said about this topic I feel extreme anxiety and pain on my chest.” —12. COVID-19 has amplified the anxious loops of thoughts in my head. But incorporating new healthy habits has helped.
