Thanks Heather. This is certainly alot to unpack, but so worth the read. I honestly did not realize the people involved in the 5G deal. Thanks for the clarification.
I was at the Doctor's today and she was mentioning how COVID-19 is truly effecting us all in ways we may not consider. She has been a General Practitioner for many years and is seeing the tally on literally everyone that comes through the door. The infected and those who have family, friends, employees, the neighbor down the street etc and the crippling fear of contracting it is so damaging. The spectators are ending up quite ill from it like nothing she has seen. Depression, anxiety, gastrointestinal problems, cardiac problems, PSTD are some of what she has seen for months attributed to COVID-19.
I would expect some issues may recede as the Covid numbers go down and the Medical field gets a handle on this. I imagine years from now we will see reports on this phenomenon.
I've said it before, but please be safe, be well. Take a breather from what you have control over and what controls you, my friends.
I am in private practice supporting teenagers who have returned home all over the nation and world from boarding schools. I can tell you, the impact on them is tremendous. And those who live in southern USA states are appalled that their family and neighbors refuse to wear masks and still send their siblings/children to school. Rather bittersweet to know that they are educated in the north and understand what needs to be done to stay safe. They have many months now of in vivo experience in living safely in small pods in boarding schools not go off campus and endanger your pod. These are teens!! And their schools have been safe because the dedicated, hardworking adults took good care of them because they love them.
Then, these young, educated in pandemic people are sent back into the alternative realities of America and witness the opposite. Anti-maskers moving around freely, traveling for the holiday, gathering in large groups, going to school without masks, even. It is heartbreaking to see them so utterly isolated and fearful at their friends, siblings and family members who look so ignorant to them. And they are isolated and in much less control than you or I.
Under normal circumstances they should be feeling invincible and and taking risks. For some, walking out the door feels like a risk because no one out there wears a mask to protect fellow humans, including them. Siblings walking IN the door is scary-- what were they exposed to today? A war zone with absolutely unnecessary landmines everywhere. The Pandemic Generation needs a lot of support. They are told not to do risky and dangerous things and then they see their supposed "role models" from the so-called president on down, acting like insane, self-serving circus idiots endangering everyone. And they see the death tolls rise.
This coup on our government by our own people is hard enough for intelligent people to understand, much less for developing brains.
I need to walk my talk which is: Stop whining and offer solutions if you must whine. Elsewhere on this forum I offer a sample solution to prepare and empower us for this inevitable and massive change and re-building the world we find ourselves in. Something called Transition Towns, which began in the UK and has spread out might provide a framework as we take stock of our communities, community assets and care of one another, post T***p Era.

Penelope, thank you for offering a solution. I will look into this. I am interested in living in a like-minded community, due to the anxiety and isolation I feel living in Florida.
Thank you for this. There are communities in Vermont who are doing things very like this, and also many Indigenous communities all across this continent who are incorporating traditional ways into taking on transitions from various causes. It's exciting to see communities themselves seeking ways to heal from within, because just as keeping ourselves healthy helps maintain the health of other people, so it is with communities and beyond.
