How to cope with feelings of anxiety after Texas shooting l GMA

I sobbed at work. Literally deep aching cry. Imma limit my exposure to this stuff too

Thank you for the guidance and advice, it’s just devastating the loss of such young kids and the teachers there. My thoughts and prayers to the families and survivors.

I appreciate that real feelings were shared in this video. I'm a parent of 4 school age children, we live in Buffalo, NY where a mass shooting just took place a block away from where my father in law owns a business. What happened in Texas is heartbreaking... but the fact of the matter is, shootings like this are growing rapidly across our nation. My kids are scared to go to school and I'm terrified to send them. I know we shouldn't live in fear, but another part of me is saying why take the risk?

Thank you for being real and honest. This was much needed. Sharing this video with other parents who are wondering how to cope. To the anchor at the end, thank you for being raw and sharing your authentic self. As a viewer, I can empathize.

Im so so so sorry for all of the victims, their families, the other children and staff in the school along with their families, and the communities of other children and families that are now so greatly affected by this catastrophe. This is devastating. I cannot imagine the pain and worry that you are experiencing. You are definitely in my prayers. 💛🙏 Hopefully, there will be more identified ways that we all can help during this grievous time. 💛🙏💛

Remind them that their safe? Are they though?

When I was a little girl I was about 11 yes my brother was murder I am 60 year old I still have a hard time with death I had no one to talk to they keep it from me and as I got older I ask my brother thing and I got bits and pieces talk to them let them know the truth couse I still don’t know all the details it’s hunted me all my life when my parents and other brother died it was hard for me and just recently we lost my mother in law my sister in law and my brother in law all to Covid in Dec and it’s was hard for me then I got Covid in January and had long Covid on top of that doing better know from Covid But death is still had for me so talk to them let them know what’s going on don’t hide it couse it makes it harder

None of this is helpful. It's a bandaid until you forget about why you're worried. Limiting screen time just keeps you uninformed.

Has anybody thought why it happenes frequently in US? Such incidents happen in a materialistic society. This will never happen in a society which is spirituality oriented.
