Mike Bitter talks about what he’s been seeing with anxiety during the pandemic. He’s been seeing numerous forms of anxiety. Anxiety that sometimes leads to frustration, depression and eventually anger.
He talks about the three stages of disaster recovery that he experienced during the four day Midwest flood lockdown of 2019, then the massive months and months of cleanup. Even today the cleanup is not completed.
Current anxiety is because we’re not sure what is going on with the Coronavirus, when the scare will be over, whether we should stay in, go out, visit friends, stay away from friends.
Heck, we can’t even visit our people in the hospital when they’re sick. How lonely is that for someone who has to stay in the hospital? How incredibly frustrating it is to have someone in the hospital and not be able to visit them or comfort them.
