COBISS.SI-ID: 62889731To help us cope with the extraordinary circumstances of a coronavirus pandemic, we must first understand how our emotions and our brains work. Emotions are the autonomous and automatic response of our brain to certain important internal or external events. Certain events trigger the experience of joy, happiness, excitement, while others trigger the experience of fear, anxiety, anger, sadness, and so on. What all emotions have in common is that they are action-oriented, ie they direct the response of our organism and our further behavior. Let’s take a closer look at the difference between fear and anxiety (or anxiety). The emotion of fear is usually experienced with a threatening factor that is very concrete (e.g., fear of spiders), while the emotion of anxiety is more generalized and diffuse and less tied to concrete events. We experience anxiety when we are faced with great demands or. when we find ourselves in difficult circumstances and at the same time assess that we do not have sufficient capacity to deal effectively with these requirements and / or circumstances (as is currently the case during the coronavirus epidemic). Because we cannot influence the course of the epidemic, and because the external threat cannot be easily annihilated or overcome, it remains for us to learn to accept and deal effectively with the unpleasant emotions we experience.
