How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

Almost a year into the pandemic, and my anxiety has soared to new levels. I have also developed panic disorder. While I am grateful that I have the means to access medicine and care to help control my symptoms, they are ever-present. I am not afraid of being sick. Rather, I am afraid that those around me will not do the right thing to mitigate the spread. I know everyone has "covid fatigue " and wants to return to some sort of normalcy, but the disregard for others ' health and wellness is depressing. I am witnessing people's breaking point in real time.
