Hello dear, this type of depression is not good for you and your family. It might affect and worsen your health. Try not to worry. Wearing mask, hand gloves, sanitizers will help you to prevent from the virus. Also go and get fresh air daily atleast for 20-30 min. Walk and exercise well. Drink plenty of water. I suggest you to do meditation. These will help you reduce your stress.

My dear, it sounds like you are going through a very tough time, and it's completely understandable to feel overwhelmed and anxious with everything happening around us. Please know that you are not alone in feeling this way. When panic sets in, try to focus on your breath: slowly inhale deeply through your nose, hold for a few seconds, and then slowly exhale through your mouth. Repeat this several times. This simple exercise can help calm your nervous system. Also, try to limit your exposure to constant news updates, which can often heighten anxiety.

It's also crucial to find ways to connect with your loved ones virtually and engage in activities that bring you some peace, like listening to calming music, light stretching, or reading. If these feelings of anxiety and panic continue to be so intense that they affect your daily life and well-being, please reach out to a mental health professional or a trusted doctor. There is no shame in seeking support, and they can provide you with proper guidance and strategies to navigate these challenging emotions.
