Just was talking about the new normal on another thread... and realized my vet struggles with this... in this case: corona pandemic which stresses and triggers him and he cannot accept the fact that it is around now... and I am not wanting to say I like corona.... not at all... but he cannot...

I think that’s irritating for a man to have a woman doing stuff for them and embrace it as the new normal, isn’t it?

My vet is in a very gloomy mood because of the corona pandemic and the world wide loss of human life’s associated with it as well as nervous and scared. Pretty difficult to cope with this.

Everything alright? Wanna talk?

My vet is in a gloomy mood those days. We do not have Memorial Day now, which is in november. He is basically in a gloomy mood because so many are dead world wide from Coronavirus and he finds it hard to cope (while being “addicted“ to learning more about the corona crisis). Everyday he wakes...

@Justmehere Can you explain the reason you did that because I am not sure if you understand. @Others: So sorry, no time for a longer answer. Will be back.

SAHM is a stay at home mum. Small chance to get infected.

Oops, sorry you got me wrong. He is not afraid because I want to go riding. He rides too and both of us have been riding since early childhood (they say people from my subculture are born with a saddle between their legs, so it’s not dangerous for us at all). No, he was actually afraid because I...

I am not sure. Maybe. I asked him why he was doing that (long ago). He said he had no idea. That it happened to him. Just like something that happens to him, doesn’t do it on purpose, cannot stop it. Then he managed to get rid of that. Now it is there again. He feels pretty much criticized...

Have not explained this very well. You probably wonder why I have to talk to him about a topic if he doesn’t want to and I don’t want to. To give an example: I wanted to go horse-riding (correct English word?) with my friend, but my guy thought it was to dangerous under current circumstances -...

I really do not have a coping method apart from being really busy. I still homeschool. Our oldest is back in school but only for three hours per week (no idea why they decided to risk infecting the kids for three hours of schooling). I make our own bread. Me and the kids do a lot of things in...

My vet returned to biting himself, scratching himself which he has done in the past but he managed to cope and mostly stop it... and now it has returned and is worse then ever. When I tell him not to he often gets angry at me and asks me why I think it is my business and refuses to discuss it...

My Vet is very afraid from Coronavirus, thinks his loved ones will die Where we live we have community spread of Coronavirus but so far none of our loved ones has been infected. My vet has always suffered from the fear that all of his loved ones would die a premature a d horrible dead. He has...

@Lionheart777 We pray a lot those days too. In fact as a family we end every day with a prayer for the scientists and doctors fighting the corona virus. So happy you are praying too and would be even more happy if others chose to join us in prayer. Some people over here demand that churches...

Where I am from the factories were never ordered to closed (some decided to close but not by order of the government) but movie theaters, restaurants, shops selling non essential goods where. Some shops have re-opened now but some people are calling for everything to open again. I think that...

How are you? I hope that everybody is doing well. So they really decided that schools should reopen... and we have to send our kids there because it is the law. Homeschooling isn’t allowed in our country. Parents have lost their custody and children have been take into care because parents...

Have not read everything but do you know Marc Lauren’s books? I think the English title of one is “be your own gym“. It’s basically body weight exercises.

Thank you @LuckiLee. Yes, we are healthy and so are our loved ones. My vet is stressed by whats happening right now. I think he wakes up feeling bad in the morning because he asks me to hold him every morning and seems to be quite anxious and it’s hard for him to get up, like he wants to hide...

@Mach123 I am a Christian but right now I find it very hard to count my blessings. The future looks so dark. A document of our government was leaked that says if we are not able to bring down the doubling rate of Coronavirus 70 percent of Germans will be infected until end of March. The death...

I am writing from Germany. I am not sure what is really happening in countries outside the European Union. So sorry if I am telling you something already useless to you - but here in Germany (and also in other countries of the European Union) we totally underestimated how bad this is. Only a few...

@siniang Sorry but please carefully read my post before you write something like this. We were able to help our elderly neighbors BECAUSE we stocked food before so that we could give them food. They would be hungry now otherwise. My husband also went shopping for them trying to get some fresh...

I was talking to people living in places where there is not already panic buying. We stockpiled in advance. Long before the panic buying started. Actually we started prepping a long time ago before we even heard of corona and thought of things like black outs. However why is it good: 1. You do...

Please prepare for Coronavirus by stockpiling food, avoiding crowds and learning about the virus I am writing from Germany, where we already have more cases of coronavirus per capital then you do. schools and daycares are closed here now, many states already closed gyms, restaurants and so on...

Where I am from they say it is important to disinfect your cell phone, door knobs, light switches and so on often - but don’t worry we have disinfectant. Soap and latex gloves are sold out now too by the way. But again don’t worry, we bought a stash weeks ago. Thats why I say start prepping...

??It turned out that my vet was right about it. He feels very guilty because he could not make people believe him when he said just this was coming to us. In Germany most federal states have closed the schools and day cares now. I will be watching six kids from Wednesday on (my own kids plus...
