Increasing your resilience can help you cope with the unknowns of the COVID-19 pandemic according to Sturgeon Bay psychologist Dr. Dennis White. He says we all have the qualities to overcome the daily stresses that can lead to anxiety and fear on several levels.
Dr. White adds that you can adapt and recover from stress and adversity. He recommends reading an article by Dr. Reggie Ferreira called “Resilience in the Shadow of Catastrophe”. The writings share how individuals, families, and communities endure trauma. You can find a link to that story and Dr. White’s current Mental Health Minute below.
