Wow 2020...…. What is going on?!
So much uncertainty fuelling fears out there in our communities. Our world has been turned upside down and I for one have definitely felt the impact of Covid19. Fortunately I have not had the virus myself but the emotional impact has been overwhelming at times. I have listened to friends who have never experienced any mental health issues suddenly being thrown into an emotional turmoil not understanding why they are feeling the way they are. We are now starting to slowly move out of 'lock down' and with this comes a whole new set of fears. Human contact is something I am longing for. All my work has been via video call for over 3 months now and whilst I feel it is better than nothing - I am so looking forward to seeing clients in person again very soon. I am trying really hard to focus on being in the present. Reminding myself that in this exact moment in time - I am safe and well. I am trying to find things I am grateful for everyday but also allowing myself the time to feel the 'frustrations' when they arise but letting them pass and not take hold. I am reminding myself I do have choices and whilst I may not be able to control what is happening in the outside world I can control how I respond to all the uncertainty. We have to acknowledge what is going on but we don't have to live it 24/7. I am so sorry for all those who have suffered or lost loved ones to this virus. All I have right now is hope. Stay safe and well xx
