anxiety right now is such a normal, expected way to responding to the situation; it's just that the situation keeps changing and bombarding us with MORE anxiety, most of it situated somewhere in the future of the worst-case scenarios, where it can't be reasoned with or breathed through. it's sort of a very concentrated marathon on pulling this future-anxiety into here-and-now and grounding yourself (via breathing, exercise, art etc...). we all are going to need a lot of time to adjust to this amount of scary stimuli.
