I understand what you must be going through. I know it is difficult to not panic after seeing the news and the headlines everywhere. You can seek therapy and reduce anxiety.
For now you can try to divert your mind elsewhere by going for a walk or doing something that helps you calm down.
For a session you can consult me at my number: eight nine one zero two five six nine seven two.
Thank you
I hope this helps.
