WEEKLYNEWS.NET - 978-532-5880 7 TIPS FOR SURVIVORS OF A PANDEMIC: MANAGING STRESS A pandemic is an epidemic of disease that often spreads quickly across far-reaching areas affecting many people. Few pandemics have affected as may communities around the world as the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Pandemics and other disasters involve physical danger and also stress that can overwhelm survivors’ usual coping strategies, both during and after the disaster. After a pandemic or other disaster, people often notice changes in how they feel, think, and act, and they may not realize that these changes are reactions to the disaster. Survivors may be at higher risk of intense reactions if they live in communities where many people got sick; they had the disease themselves, or they had health, mental health or substance abuse conditions before and during the pandemic. Pandemics, unlike other types of disasters to not have a clear beginning and ending, sometimes leading to increased uncertainty and distress. This tip sheet describes common reactions after pandemics and other disasters and suggest ways to cope. It also covers financial stress and signs of the urgent need for mental health assistance and lists sources of help and support. COMMON REACTONS TO DISASTERS Survivors often notice changes in their thinking, feeling, and behavior during and after a disaster, as well as physical signs and symptoms. Changes related to thinking may include nightmares, confusion, trouble making decisions, trouble concentrating, difficulty with remembering things and inability to listen to others. Changes in feelings may include increased or overwhelming fear, anxiety, depression, irritability and anger, hopelessness, or guilt. Survivors may also experience a sense of disconnection, or not caring about things, as well as inability to feel joy or sadness. Changes in behavior may include having an exaggerated startle response trouble sleeping, or more arguments with others. Survivors may also notice that they are eating too much or too little, crying more often, having angry outbursts, or spending more time alone. Their substance use may increase. Physical signs and symptoms may include headaches, stomachaches, or diarrhea; loss of appetite; sweating or having chills; remorse (shaking) or muscle twitches; higher or lower energy than usual; or being unable to relax.

Modeling these strategies can also help your family through phases of disaster recovery. Make and use Your connections. Build close relationships with others, especially with those who accept and understand your feelings, and take time to enjoy the close relationships you have. Socializing with others can reduce stress and create a sense of support and connection. Try volunteering, visiting family, calling a friend, or reaching out to a faith leader. Find Purpose. After a disaster there may be time to reflect on what is important to you in life and to make sure you’re spending the most time on things that matter most to you. Take part in activities you find enjoyable and meaningful, or create a plan to move in that direction. Have a Flexible Routine. Create a routine or daily schedule.
