What is the psychological toll of uncertainty, and not knowing what's coming next? (via CNBCMakeIt)
As summer approaches, you may find yourself longing for events that you would typically look forward to, such as vacations, holidays or time spent with your family.
From an evolutionary perspective, humans have been able to survive because we're able to plan. We're socialized from childhood to believe that "there's a predictable universe" and order in which things should happen, Antshel says. These feelings all come back to uncertainty. "Fear and anxiety really run hand-in-hand: The more things are uncertain, the more we're going to fear, and the more we fear things, the more we are anxious," he says. While planning for post-pandemic life can feel comforting, thinking too much about the future can also increase our anxious thoughts.
