(But there are much worse things I could have, I realize.)The last several weeks I've not been so good in dealing with anxiety. But I'm strong. I can journey through, a moment at a time.A prayer (even if one is not a believer, it's incredibly good advice, it seems to me) that helps is the Serenity Prayer:God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.

You have major, major industries and businesses which prosper during times of crisis and panic, such as a hurricane, which could destroy or greatly damage people’s homes, and it could interrupt the flow of water and electricity. So what happens?
Well, the TV stations begin reporting this and the panic begins to increase. And then people end up going to various stores to stock up on water and whatever they might need for home repairs and batteries and all this that they’re advised to get, and a vicious circle is created. You have these various retail outlets who spend a lot of advertising dollars with the local media.
The local media, in turn, reports in such a way as to create the panic way far out, which sends people into these stores to fill up with water and to fill up with batteries, and it becomes a never-ending repeated cycle. And the two coexist.... less
