I've got CPTSD so I'm always stressed and sort of over-preparing for things to go very very wrong. When the pandemic hit, all of those preparations came true. I was expecting the worse and here it was.

Was the only time in my life, at least in the past 15+ years, that I actually felt somewhat relaxed. Then the prices of everything went up and I got stressed for way different reasons.

I watch someone on YouTube who deals with stress. They said they were... I think relieved (can't recall exactly what word they used) because, for once, their stress and the actions resulting from it were now normal.
