This Is 2020, Living In A Pandemic – Worried / by Lisa Bailey

I’m not a doctor, a politician, or an expert on probably anything. My overarching emotion for the past 24 hours is just this underlying worry. I can sit here and type an endless list of the things that worry me today but I don’t think that’s helpful.

In the most general of generalities, I’m worried about all of us.

I don’t know how to help anyone except stay home and wash my hands.

I am finding the only social media channel that fosters positivity and a “We’re in this together and we’re going to get through it” is Instagram. The mania on Facebook and the seething anger on Twitter is just too much to handle.

I’ve began sending random SnapChats to my friends and daughter as a somewhat funny way to find connection with people.

I have NO focus at all. My attention span is practically non-existent.

I keep saying we’ll get through this but today…I’m saying it with less enthusiasm because I fear we’re simply not capable.
