The lockdown effect

It's been a while, but I just had to vent out. I don't have nobody, no venue, and no place to go. I'm going crazy, to say the least. Then I remember this little corner of mine where nobody really goes to read anyway.

This lockdown has been very successful in magnifying all my anxieties, and for a multiple different reasons!

I am anxious if we will be ever to survive this virus and come out unscathed and alive. I'm anxious about my two sons who are trapped away from home because of the lockdown. I am anxious about my son who suddenly found himself unemployed, while away from home, because his company just dropped him in the midst of the pandemic. I'm anxious about our government who really does nothing but take advantage of the chaotic situation to cling to power. I am anxious about the noisy neighbors who doesn't seem to respect other people's need for a peaceful environment. I am anxious about my work because every time I make a mistake, I feel like I will be thrown out suddenly. I am anxious about my health. I am anxious about this. I am anxious about that. I am anxious about almost EVERYTHING!

And the nearest exit is always calling me.
