The pandemic in general has added a layer of stress to my life. I'm hyper aware of ppl now and in stores I feel angry / anxious if someone gets too close or doesn't follow check out rules. The isolation and disruption of life is also painful.

Woven Galaxy, I feel the exact same way. I was anxious enough, before, when strangers got in my personal space. NOW, I'm an instant wreck, and have even blurted out some fairly surprising anti-social rebuffs at same strangers. Add to that the fact that they're usually not wearing masks!!!! (although I always do; I don't go out without one.) Don't get me started!....!
The overall economic situation has got me worried, too. I was just getting things together to perhaps run a small online business from home. But will people want to buy? Will they have the spare cash to do it? The outcome is all so unknowable, right now. |

That it might be difficult to sell our house and/or get a good amount of money for it.

As always, I'm anxious about my mentally ill 50 yo son who has been cutting dialysis treatments in half (from 4 hrs. to 2 hrs.)for 4-5 mos. He is slowly declining in appetite and physical energy. I don't want him to endure a slow death, but I can't talk to him about it. He doesn't understand what he is doing to himself. I would be ok with him just stopping dialysis, but again, I can't suggest this.
If anyone has read the book Being Mortal, you realize that its just pointless to maintain an existence that's never going to get any better. I never know when I'm going to find him dead of a heart attack or stroke. It's extremely painful to have this uncertainty. The social worker I spoke to said it could be weeks, months, or a year before he has to be hospitalized or passes away. |

Every home in our neighborhood (town homes) has sold in a matter of days/weeks. At least 4 homes have gotten offers at or above the asking price.

For me it's dealing with a person that is very negative towards me in day program. I am trying very hard to not let it bother me and focusing on why i go to day program. There are so many other people there that I have become friends with. I wish it was easy for me to let go this person.

For me, it's lack of meaningful interactions with friends and people I care about. I fear that I will lose relationships and be out of touch with people for a while. This is really gnawing at me. I didn't realize how much I needed people before all this happened.
