This is a harmful sentiment. People are struggling to make sense of this thing that makes no sense. Many people are able to check in on themselves and are barely able to check on those in the same house. The level and mutation of anxiety and depression is unprecedented. https://twitter.com/tiamowry/status/1246950589382057984

Give your loved ones the grace to deal with this how they can. Free yourself from the need to judge the quality of your relationships based on how you’re centered during a crisis. Free yourself from the ego and contortions of patting yourself on the back for being a “good friend”

A “good friend” will be there when they’re able to make sense of what the fuck is going on and things return to “normal”. Even if shit will never be normal.

Are you okay?
Are you giving yourself what you need?
Remember who you are when all of this is over.
