emotional first-aid fit

I have been feeling emotional across the spectrum, overwhelmed, isolated, incapable, and acting out of fear and discomfort. I am trying to learn how to connect with and support those suffering greatly now without taking on their pain and seeing my mental wellness spiral to its deepest lows. I think we all know pain. How it shows up may be different, but it is there nonetheless. Can we acknowledge how overwhelming just every single thing is, step back and breathe, and show compassion to ourselves right now? Can we show compassion for those in crisis that have also harmed us? How do we amplify our love for community and humanity? #Trauma #mentalwellness #Depression #Anxiety #EmotionalFirstaidFit #Love #compassion #humanity #COVID19 #Fear #Healing
