Anxiety and COVID-19

Can anxiety arise about COVID-19 (Coronavirus)?

In Jean Hailes Helps With New Anxiety Pages the JH elaborate on:

Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)

“COVID-19 has turned our world completely upside down. Borders around the world are closing, lockdowns are being imposed, stock markets are plummeting, and we are being urged to distance ourselves from other people.

Some degree of psychological fallout is inevitable. Stress levels are up. So too is fear. There will be spikes in anxiety across communities.

This is why we at Jean Hailes are launching our updated Anxiety pages. We hope they will help to provide you with strategies to understand and deal with feelings of nervousness, worry, unease, panic and a fear of what might, or might not, unfold”.4

Anxiety Management Tips

What are some anxiety management tips?

In 10 Tips for Managing Anxiety During COVID-19 an author on the (Australian) Black Dog Institute’s website elaborates on:

  1. “Channel your anxious energy into action: get informed, plan, and prepare…
  2. Limit or avoid unhelpful media and misinformation…
  3. Cut down or stop the behaviours that are fuelling your anxiety…
  4. Stay focused on the here and now, taking each day step by step…
  5. Be aware of negative thoughts and don’t give them too much power…
  6. Look after your body…
  7. Stay connected with others…
  8. Help other people, be kind, and compassionate…
  9. Take a breath…
  10. If you’re feeling like you’re not coping, get professional advice
    It’s ok to ask for help. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, seek professional support. Psychological therapies can be done online, or remotely via phone or videoconferencing, and are an excellent option if you’re in self-isolation, or worried about going to a clinic.Importantly, be assured that for most people, the anxiety will be temporary, and will reduce over time, especially once the virus has been contained”.5
