During this time where a pandemic is present, if you are experiencing anxiety or stress because of COVID, treatment is necessary to help you get through life without difficulties. There are anxiety treatment programs available at Fort Behavioral Health if you feel you are suffering from distressful symptoms at this time.

Rely on Others to Talk Things Through

At a time when you are expected to remain at home for as much time as possible, it is easy to become lonely and worried because of the lack of interaction with others. It is critical that you maintain connections with those you care about during the pandemic.

While this cannot always be done in person, there is an opportunity to reach out via phone, text, message platform, social media platform, email, or video software platform. These are wonderful tools that allow people to talk to each other in real-time whenever they wish.

Keep in Contact with People from Therapy Sessions

If you had therapy sessions in the past, you likely had a group session at one point or another. These people suffer from the same worries as you, making them a great support system to reach out to if you are feeling down. Some therapy groups keep in contact with each other via computer during these trying times.

Make an effort to log in and see others with anxiety and speak with them to talk through feelings when needed. These sessions are a great way to make friends and develop coping mechanisms that help everyone during the virus outbreak.

Consider Taking on a New Hobby

While the pandemic continues, you want to stay out of the public as much as you can to keep yourself from becoming sick and to stop from spreading a potential problem to others. This is the perfect time to take on a new hobby as you likely spend more time at home by yourself.

Obtain books from a local library or purchase online texts that teach you about the hobby you select. Read up on the topic and jump right in to learn a new activity. This provides a sense of self-satisfaction and helps to keep your mind off of anxiety and worry as well.

Take the Time to Pamper Yourself

One of the COVID anxiety therapies that work well for people experiencing distress is to take time to pamper themselves. Book a date for a haircut, massage, or spa session. Take this time to relax instead of focusing on the news or situations happening in your area. If possible, do this frequently. Knowing that you have the chance for another relaxing session in the future provides you with something to look forward to. When you can, take in a pampering session with a friend or family member to boost your spirits and maintain a healthy conversational connection with others.

Reach Out for Personalized COVID Anxiety Therapies

Individual COVID anxiety therapies are available via recovery treatment centers. Reach out to Fort Behavioral Health to inquire about setting up sessions with a trained therapist to speak about your concerns. These are usually done weekly, or more frequently if you desire. In between sessions, jot down any concerns you are experiencing, so you remember to bring them up to your therapist during your next session together.
