The reality of distance socialization (aka social distancing) is sinking in. What was only going to be a few weeks of sheltering in place looks like it might be a few months. Short term coping is one thing; long term is another. What started as family togetherness can turn to frustration fairly easily as the inability to separate from each other continues.
How to cope? No different than last week's message: mindset matters. Self-care, controlled breathing, exercise, fun, eating healthy, sleep- all make a difference.

The coronavirus pandemic and sheltering at home can be very triggering, especially if one has already experienced trauma. The fear that sets in with every sneeze or cough can be debilitating. Accepting help is the first step in more effectively navigating the current situation- emotionally and physically. Take care of yourself so you can be there for others.
We are in this together and together we will get through.
