oh … the fear of outside, usually …
but right now that’s, like … a skillset, or something.
i am not too sure to be honest.
the fear of the unknown if i have to pick one.
i try to focus on things within my control, as an anxiety coping strategy so i don’t really play into fears as much as i can help it. but for the purposes of this particular writing prompt …
the fear of the unknown would have to take the cake.
i am sure everyone is sick of the #CoVidCrisis at this point. i am no different! i notice the changing variables and moving targets put in place by government officials and noticing the long lasting impacts that they are having on people around me. even if i am still home, all the time, in my pre-existing socially distanced bubble.
it isn’t fun that things keep dragging out the way they do and the part of that that makes it seem to impact most people, across the board, is the lac of long term planning ability. we like to look forward to things. without the ability to have some things to look forward to, it seems extra hard.
so … i am planning little things here to fight that fear. things for my self and my community to look forward to.
no matter what may come.
