“We are not alone, bearing the burden by ourselves. To get over the effects of the pandemic [on the collective psyche], contact, while not physical, is necessary.”
The coronavirus scare started in Wuhan, China in December 2019, but medical authorities did not realise the full scope of its impact in the coming weeks.
Such reports have caused a panic verging on mass hysteria in the public, as seen in supermarket lines, with people bulk buying toilet paper, stocking up on frozen food and hoarding canned goods. Dr Aker is quick to point out that by “experiencing a sense of control” he doesn’t mean suppressing one’s feelings of anxiety or becoming a shut-in due to fear of contracting or spreading the virus. “These feelings should be able to be shared within the family,” he says. “Parents should talk to their children, play games with them, paint and draw, read, and turn fear and anxiety into ordinary feelings.” He recommends the film “Inside Out” that explores basic emotions in animated form.
“People’s networks should include friends, as well as community leaders and important institutions. For example museums, artists, scientists, book and magazine publishers are sharing their content for free online. These too can be taken into consideration. We are not alone, bearing the burden by ourselves. To get over the effects of the pandemic [on the collective psyche], contact, while not physical, is necessary,” Dr Aker explains.
