Even though I'm not normally a "germophobe," I've noticed that COVID-19 hygiene practices have been triggering some obsessive-compulsive behaviors for me.

For instance, I've noticed that 20 seconds of handwashing no longer feels like enough, and that each time I go shopping I seem to raise my standards for how thoroughly I spray bleach all over the cart.

It started out, I would just spray the handle's and baby seat area, and now I spray the whole thing. One of the ways anxiety can manifest is as obsessive-compulsive tendencies.

"There are so many things in our lives that require us to be in action, to push forward, to respond really really quickly, but I find these asana, combined with a very mindful movement of breath, give me the ability to feel still, to feel grounded, and to allow patience to surface in every aspect of my life," says yoga and meditation teacher and studio owner Faith Hunter. Her 30-minute gentle asana and pranayama practice will hep you burn off some energy, take a moment of pause, and feel calm.

Why COVID-19 is Killing your Boundaries
This week, we learned that, according to the Kinsey Institute, one in five people report they have been contacted by ex-partners, during the current crisis and isolation related to COVID-19. The researchers speculate that these contacts come from a variety of motives, ranging from checking on the health and safety of former partners, to existential questions about whether it was right to end past relationships. Renewing old relationships in this time of crisis may be a sense of safety or stability in an unstable time. It might also be a way to develop “after-isolation” plans and potentials for hooking up.

Covid-19 Brings a Pandemic of Conspiracy Theories
On March 11 2020, The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. As the rate of infections and the death toll continue to rise, fear, racism, panic buying, and conspiracy theories have become increasingly common. Although conspiracy theories emerged as a cultural phenomenon in the 20th century, similar occurrences have been observed alongside past pandemics.

Dealing with Death Anxiety
Particularly for Western culture, death is seen as the ultimate evil; death represents our greatest enemy, nemesis and adversary. Something to be disdained, shunned, and resisted at all costs. Whenever human beings are subjected to the suffering and death of natural disasters, we are forced to gaze into the face of evil. At the moment, for many of us, it is the invisible, microscopic coronavirus that most immediately epitomizes evil, suffering, and death. COVID-19 is our devil du jour.

In a time where only one adult alone should go out for essentials, that can be impossible for someone who is sheltering-in-place with a small child.

People all over the world are experiencing the COVID-19 crisis in a variety of ways. In Ireland, a vast majority of the population have been asked to stay at home in an effort to battle the spread of the virus. Other than giving me an opportunity to spend more time with my family, one good thing that has come from all this (for me, anyway) is that it’s also given me a chance to read more. However, some of that reading is conducted through social media, which unfortunately is often a breeding ground for misinformation; so, critical thinking is obviously requisite for this endeavour.

The Deadly Effects of COVID-19 Misinformation
Earlier this year, celebrity stuntman “Mad” Mike Hughes put his “flat-earther” conspiracy theories to the ultimate test, making another attempt to shoot himself into the troposphere with a homemade steam-powered rocket so that he could evaluate whether the Earth is really round with his own eyes. The attempt ended in tragedy after his rocket ship struck part of the launch assembly on the way up, causing it to take a nosedive after a brief ascent. Hughes died from the impact.

I’m based in the greater New York City metropolitan area, where numbers are among the highest in the US. We do not know when numbers will change, or when lives will begin to look a bit more normal.

Personality in the Time of COVID
When the virus came to our shores, I knew much would change, but I was fairly certain that at least one thing would be minimally impacted: my online course in self-assessment. In this course, students engage in a multitude of tasks aimed at introducing them to various theories and methods of studying personality. It is largely self-guided and task-oriented, and thus easily done on one’s own time, in and around the rest of life. So it was unsurprising that as I and my students in my in-person courses struggled to adjust to moving fully online, the already-online course was moving along rather well in the first two weeks of the shutdown. However, the third week brought with it an unanticipated wrinkle.

“I am No Longer the Person Everyone Expects Me to Be.”
I’m the mother of three kids with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) who are currently struggling to stay focused on schoolwork while cooped up inside. I’m also a children’s book author with a new title releasing right now that needs hoopla and promotions of all sorts. I’m a graduate psychology professor with 15 papers to grade. And I’m a psychotherapist who is professionally poised to help others manage their difficult emotions during these confusing times. Today, I’m also a blogger for this very website, asked to conjure some inspiration during this pandemic. And finally, I’m the wife of a very stressed working-at-home husband who needs me to handle the home front.

Dealing with Death Anxiety
Death, of course, comes to each of us, and there are literally a thousand ways to die. Indeed, one eventually must die of something, be it old age, accident, war, or disease. This is an inexorable existential fact of life. Death has always, in all cultures, been a mysterium tremendum, an immense mystery. What happens after death--if anything beyond decay, decomposition and gradual disintegration--is still pure speculation. And, psychologically, such speculation, whether that of science, philosophy or religion, serves one primary purpose: the demystification of death in an endeavor to mediate or eliminate our existential anxiety about it.

COVID-19 and Virtual Learning: How We're Supporting Each Other in My School District
Standing in the gap is a biblical term that refers to someone standing in the gap of a wall that has been breached and needs to be filled to protect from enemies. For our learners, their usual wall of protection certainly has a gap now, and many of them will need us to stand in it for and with them. This time of COVID-19, schools closing their physical walls and social distancing is scary for everyone. It creates uncertainty about our world that is unsettling and filled with anxiety for many people, but especially for those with previous mental health concerns.
