Anxiety and the Power of Now

Bulletin 32 | By Zoe Harcombe

This Bulletin was written by guest author Zoe Harcombe on mental health and anxiety in the context of the pandemic. Zoe looks at the definition of generalised anxiety disorder per the DSM (diagnostic standards) and posits that anxiety about COVID-19 is not a disorder, but a natural response to an unnatural situation. The article considers institutional responses then looks more at how we can cope better individually.
