I'm not diagnosed with any acronyms, but I would be surprised if I don't have a few myself (psychiatrist are not cheap), after about a month without human contact besides me shopping for food twice a month, I found out that: Social Distancing and Avoid crowds and standing near others is now recommended; has that made anxious? hell no. After all I've never been to fond of humans, I don't hate them or anything is like with fish. I don't dislike them, I just don't need to be surrounded by them.
And also, I'm from Chile, when generalized stupidity is a national sport. We have been for months being attacked by that stupidity to the point that people are asking for a communist government, you know, like Venezuela, Cuba or North Korea; I think people see those countries and say, I want that too. People burning the streets, banging pans on their windows, protests, tear gas everywhere. You know, dumb people doing their best. So a little pandemic is no biggie when you could be without any food in a year, making long lines just to get some food. Then people will blame the US, the fact that the earth is flat or vaccines for mind control. Fun fact 50 years ago we had a communist gov and everything went to hell, but no, we want the sequel, also those who where present back then are the ones that teach the younger batch of stupid people, so it requires a lot of effort to feel sympathy for old people in my country nowadays.
So yeah, anxiety for COVID-19? not much, not much at all.

ohh, and I just found out that I'm one of the minority that can't form mental images nor "see" memories, I spend my whole life so far thinking that "visualize this" or "imagine that" was figurative speech!, ok, that's it, I'm fine now...
