Facing health hazards and the uncertainty of life, our survival instinct will make us afraid or even angry. On the one hand, we should admit our anxiety, fear and anger. These emotions are our normal response to stress/danger. Moderate anxiety helps improve our vigilance level and favors the survival and creation of individuals. On the other hand, anxiety and fear will be exacerbated and amplified by many of our involuntary catastrophic thinking, especially in the era of information explosion. In most cases, we will be consciously or unconsciously overwhelmed by relevant information of “COVID-19”. Seeing available updates on Sina Weibo and WeChat moments and checking your phone every few minutes bring more worry and fear. Especially the emotional and personal information on the social media has caused us a deep sense of fear and weakness, and even the anger at others or the society.
\n\nIII. Fear and somatic response
\n\nEspecially when such symptoms as fever and cough develop, the catastrophic thinking will become more real, generating fear of death, guilt and regret about our behavior - “Will I die from infection with COVID-19? What will happen to my family? They are also infected by me, and the evil I bring on myself is the hardest to bear”. Anxiety and fear will activate our sympathetic nervous system, aggravating our original symptoms and even leading to new symptoms such as palpitation, weak chest, shortness of breath, constipation and frequent urination, etc. Now, our anxiety and fear will be magnified infinitely, leading to a vicious circle of anxiety and fear.
