they've seen a 12 to 19% increase in screening for generalized anxiety disorder since February.
Even people who have never had much anxiety themselves are feeling, if nothing else, the reverberations of everyone around them being on edge: "I'm finding that the 24/7 nature of sheltering in place with other people who are highly anxious and who are used to me ‘making things okay’ is taxing my standard ability to let everything just roll off of me," says Crystal R., a 48-year-old professional counselor in L.A.
Jen B. says she usually deals with her anxiety by going to the gym and hanging out with her mom — but both those are both off the table. And the isolation alternatives just don’t have the same effect: Jen says she's been having trouble committing to home workouts, especially with her partner at home too, unintentionally making her self-conscious while she sweats on a mat in the living room.
