anxiety/depression help you cope with pandemic

People all speak about using zoom or such to see your mom. and your brother.  Would that help?

It seems like they are safe. But my heart goes out to you Orange Rabbit. I am very used to being alone.  My son finally called me for Mother's Day. He is in science and an essential worker. But for reasons unknown, I somehow added a crying cat to his name on the smart phone. Took me awhile to find that cat. But my son is notorious for not calling me.  Then, he thought about what I said. Lack of monies. No stimulus check. And, i gotta move whenever Landlord is allowed to evict us.  So today my son, rocket scientist of the world, sent me bottled water.  Very nice esp for how much he is under his wife's control.  Yum.  But it makes me smile to know he even cares.

When the worst is over, U will see your Mom and Brother and they will be fine.  And we shall get through this.  Most of us.  And your anxiety levels will drop. No more super anxious.  But the causitive factor is the amt of time u r waiting to see your loved ones.  Many with underlying conditions have recovered.  I lift up your mom and brother and you, and i know u are not into religion and stuff, but I gotta lift up your mom, your brother and you, In Jesus' precious name, that He grant you all health and healing and gives you the peace that surpasses understanding.

*i had to do that. I know, OR*  So, here is to less anxiety this week for all.  And weight? pshaw.  If one has food, it is normal to eat to relieve stress.  You will make it, OR.  promise.
Charon! I feel for you, I know zoom calls are ok for now, but its not the same as being with family, being able to have casual human interactions with loved ones.

And in regards to your son, I feel you, kind of. My situation is reversed where my mother never called me or came to see me when I chose to live with my dad when I was 3 y/o because her ex used to abuse her and he's even abused me, remember my dad came to visit and I ran as fast as I could into his arms and begged him "please can I come with you" .. i remember this vividly.

To this day my mother holds that as a grudge against me..when I was only 3 years old. She holds onto grudges like no other. And I've vented to her that i need my mom sometimes and how our relationship isn't even there, but it takes two to make things work and ive tried reaching out all i could.

I too am used to being alone, other than with my dad but we don't bother each other too much (he's a recluse) 

So for Charon, in Jesus's name and the grace of God i hope that your scenario with your landlord will go down smoothly, and find a new home with fresh beginnings, and pray your sons wife appreciates her mother in law much more. 
I know a few people that let their spouses get in between relationships between parent and child.. and its sad. 

And to you orange rabbit, 
I totally get the added anxiety, and you are blessed to have a family you love so much, to the point its disturbing your peace. I live in Canada and they're slowly lifting all bans, i hope they do too wherever you are and can see your family again and replace those feelings of anxiety with love and joy.

I know times are rough right now, but I pray that in the name of God, things will get better, and hopefully taking care of out planet is next.

There's a lyric from my favorite band called TOOL where it says "Moms comin round soon, moms coming back to put it back the way it ought to be"
