  • It's inevitable really. 
    The uncertainty of the situation means that things like anxiety and depression will likely get worse. I can't use my usual coping strategies and can feel the effects. 
    The problems with debt, unemployment. Relationship breakdowns. 
    The things that key workers have to see and deal with, the relentless pressure they are under along with the worries we all have about family and friends. 
    I worry about the impact it will be having on children, we could be dealing with the impacts years from now.

    It was near enough impossible to access counselling pre covid unless you were able to pay. Can't see that changing any time soon.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
