When war dominates the news, it's easy to feel like your emotional response is "too much" or not enough. As you read this, conflicts are actively unfolding across the globe: in Iran, Gaza, Ukraine, Lebanon, Sudan, South Sudan, and many more. The news is relentless. Social media is full of images and videos that are impossible to unsee. There are layers and layers of anxiety-inducing information, which continuously activate the brain’s threat detections system and trigger our stress response. The truth is, there's no right way to feel when the world is in crisis. Fear, grief, anger, numbness, guilt for feeling okay. All of it is part of being human. Whether you have loved ones in a conflict zone, belong to an affected community, or are simply someone watching devastating events unfold on a small screen, your mental health deserves attention.
