Hello everybody,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you all are ok, and the virus didn\u2019t knock your door or if it did it, you don\u2019t have too many symptoms! Good luck to all of you for supporting your children and supporting yourself too! ???. (In Canada, we are not yet in mandatory lockdown, but we have to do self-isolation and social distancing. Only food shops, drugstores, and restaurants that deliver are open. And only 4 airports are still open, throughout the country! But they\u2019re operating a very low number of flights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From my end, as a real hypochondriac, I am in stress and panic mode, ??. I read a lot (not all good stuff I think!) to try to reassure myself but it\u2019s not very efficient?. At the same time, I\u2019m trying to not spread this stress too much to my kids??. I started writing in my diary last night and I\u2019m thinking about going back to EFT (https:\/\/www.astypiques.com\/en\/post\/the-eft-and-my-stress-a-love-story<\/a>), I\u2019m continuing my knitting which is helping me a lot! ? And I\u2019m going to follow this little pattern shared by a mom in a Facebook group<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you go:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And you, what things do you do to feel better?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feel free to share them here in the comments. It could help other people to live this situation in the best conditions! ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How are things going on at home, for your children?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, we experience it a little differently:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 My Big one (aspergirl) tells us she\u2019s not stressed, that the virus is nothing, but she\u2019s stressed because her routine is changed, and she doesn\u2019t understand why people don\u2019t follow instructions! ??<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 My Little one (HPI\/hypersensitive) is highly strung, gets angry easily?. He even had a big tantrum and then cried and finally told us that he was afraid that we could die because of the virus, that he is afraid of this virus! He\u2019s been hugging us a lot ever since! ???<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I showed them a little video, in French, explaining what to do and reassuring them: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
