Last Minute Changes and Coronavirus

Misnamedhellion

How is everyone coping with all of the last minute changes that the coronavirus outbreak is causing? I am feeling very stressed because my work might close any day (we are a visitor attraction), and I might have to work from home. People have started cancelling plans, and events, and my routine is not consistent. Everything just seems very uncertain for the next few months, and I know that we're all in a similar position.

I understand that all of these things are necessary in order to protect the most vulnerable in society, but I'm find the uncertainty really difficult to cope with - its all a bit overwhelming Does anyone have any coping mechanisms that they would like to share for dealing with necessary changes?

  • Hello, my first post on this Community forum.

    I share the same frustration, stress and panic. For me its the worry of all the changes that seem to be happening, fast and quite suddenly. As much as these changes are needed, its just how quick they seem to have happened and its impact on society.

    I work as a Bus Driver, and at the moment in Leicester we do not have any plans to change anything to our timetables. However it has gone notably quiet the past few days as a result of the Goverments advice and i am worried that last minute changes may be brought into force. I work late shifts so im always in a routine and my work are very supportive of this with me but i worry our late services could potentially be scaled down.

    The other day i went into Tescos and the amount of empty shelves was shocking. I have a limited diet like many other fellow people on here and when i went to the Chips freezer, i was stunned to find it totally empty.

    I just hope the Governement dont order a full lockdown as i am the sort of person who cant stay in the 4 walls of my flat. I can feel the impact of all this is affecting me mentally and i seriously worry what the future brings. I just hope, it will start to ease soon and society will just all go back to normal.
