OCTOBER 14, 2021 WEEKLYNEWS.NET - 978-532-5880 5 Seniors 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. TIPS TO MANAGE DISTRESS AFTER A PANDEMIC Coping skills and strategies can help you deal with the distress that is common among disaster survivors. 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. Have a plan to accomplish required tasks, and create a flexible routine to accomplish them. Routines provide a sense of control over your life and reduce stress and uncertainty. Flexible routines allow you to accommodate unexpected events or urgent needs that arise while also maintaining a degree of consistency. Manage Thoughts. In challenging times, it is easy for your attention to focus more on the negative. To counter this tendency, remind yourself of transitions and challenges you have successfully navigated in the past. It may be helpful to remember coping methods that worked for you then, as they may also News Intake. Try not to overconsume news. Doing so has been shown to increase stress levels and anxiety. It may be helpful to identify a few sources you trust and plan to consult regularly; stick with those sources; and set a daily time limit for reading, watching, and listening to news. Sense of Humor. Use humor to reduce stress. Watch a funny movie or podcast, read a good book, or tell a funny joke to someone you know. Physical Care. Eat healthy meals and snacks, drink plenty of water, and get enough rest. Avoid excessive amounts of caffeine and alcohol. Model these behaviors for your family. Exercise. Set aside time for regular exercise of other physical activity as research shows this reduces stress and anxiety while also boosting physical health. If your schedule doesn’t allow for long segments of activity, take a couple of 5-minute walks instead. Try to make regular physical activity a part of your everyday routine. Get outside. Visit a local park or other beautiful space. Find time to step outside regularly and move around. The fresh air will decrease stress while providing a boost to physical and mental health. Write in a Stress Journal. Take 15-20 minutes each day to reflect upon stress and write down your thoughts and feelings. If you take time during the day to address stress, it is less likely at night to interfere with sleep. Celebrate Successes, and Make Time for Activities You Enjoy. Know it is okay to experience joy in the disaster recovery process and have moments of success even after a pandemic or other disaster. Return to doing things you enjoy with your family and spending time with friends. When to Seek Professional Support. Reactions to disasters dissipate in time for many survivors. However, some survivors may experience reactions that persist over time, cause them distress and get in the way of their daily lives; especially survivors with a recent history of intense stress or health conditions. Here are examples of more serious reactions after a disaster. Disorientation or confusion, and difficulty communicating thoughts Limited attention span and difficulty concentrating Overwhelming guilt and self-doubt Feelings of hopelessness Frequent mood swings or continuous crying Reluctance to leave home Fear of crowds, strangers or being alone Increase use of drugs, alcohol, or prescription medication Helpful Resources: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Toll free 1-877-726-4727 SAMHSA Disaster Technical Assistance Ctr. 1-800-308-3515 Helplines: SAMHSA Disaster Distress Helpline 1-800-846-8517 National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255 Treatment locator SAMHSA’s National Helpline: 1-800-662-4357.
