Answer:

Has the COVID-19 pandemic left you feeling out of sorts in a way you can’t quite describe? You’re not alone. Beyond the physical toll it takes on those who experience symptoms, an emotional heaviness has seeped into most of us.

Anxiety, definitely. Fear, dread and grief are mixed in too. We’re also experiencing ambiguous grief. It’s not a clear loss, like that experienced by people who have lost a loved one, but it’s the feeling we’ve lost so much in terms of normalcy and safety. Before the pandemic, people felt safe going about their daily business, doing things like going to the grocery store. That feeling of safety is gone.

Adverse events usually don’t affect so many people at the same time. There is comfort in knowing we can all commiserate, but conversely, it means our normal sources of support may be struggling because they’re experiencing it too.

It’s unique to be living through an extended crisis with an uncertain end date.

though knowing my feelings are kind of universal doesn’t solve my problems, there is some comfort in knowing that other people are also going through it.Because I didn’t want to keep that revelation confined to my own therapy sessions, I asked therapists and other mental health professionals (over the phone and via email) what feelings and worries are coming up a lot in their sessions with clients right now. If you’re dealing with any of the following emotional experiences, more people than you might think can probably relate—and it is 100% valid.

1. You’re burned out.

If you’re currently sheltering in place and not, say, working a demanding job as an essential worker, you might not have considered the possibility of burnout right now. But even for those of us in a relatively safe position, burnout is a natural consequence of the pandemic. “Burnout is the result of pouring more energy out than you’re taking in,” Ryan Howes, Ph.D., tells SELF.

2. You’re angry.

You probably don’t need me to tell you that there are a lot of things to be angry about right now, whether you’re frustrated at people who aren’t taking this seriously enough or have a lot of feelings about how the pandemic is being handled on a structural level. Therapists are hearing all this and more, especially from essential workers stuck in impossible situations without the support they need.“While many know that they are needed as health care workers and want to serve, they may also feel anger [because] they do not have the proper equipment to safely do their job or resources for their clients,” Chante' Gamby, L.C.S.W., tells SELF.

3. You’re…surprisingly calm.

With all this focus on looking after your mental health and coping with anxiety during the pandemic, it might feel weird to be doing, well, pretty okay. But according to multiple therapists I talked to, a sense of calm is a pretty common reaction. It might be out of avoidance or because the new coronavirus feels “out of sight, out of mind,” but it could also be a direct sign that you’re more equipped to deal with all this than you thought.

4. You’re spiraling about what might happen.

The uncertainty of the pandemic—and the long-term impact it will have on both a personal level and a larger scale—is one of the most common themes the therapists I talked to have come across in their work. That should come as no surprise to anyone going through a ton of anxiety right now; there is just so much we can’t predict.

5. You’re struggling with working from home.

If your employer is piling on more work and meetings, leaving your work-life balance in the toilet, you’re not alone. Transitioning from a typical work setup to working from home has caused a lot of stress, angst, and frustration for a ton of people.

6. You’re mourning canceled events.

There’s no denying that the pandemic completely disrupted life as we know it, forcing a lot of people to miss out on experiences they’d been looking forward to for a long time. “Clients are mourning their important events such as birthdays, upcoming retirement, canceled wedding plans, and their children’s graduation,” says Erinna.
