CONNECT CALENDAR OF EVENTS
I participated in one of CONNECT Summit County’s free virtual health support groups. I thought it was a great service to the community and was curious to examine my own feelings of stress during this time. I joined the confidential group and within a few minutes was pretty overcome with emotion – the feeling of overwhelm from this burden we have all been carrying for the last few months. I recognized I needed space to process what was going on and it was a great reminder that everyone needs support right now and it’s OK to not be OK. Share how you’re feeling with others and please, reach out for help if you need it.
