Now my governor is requiring face masks for all customers of essential businesses like grocery stores and pharmacies. Also, the grocery store I always go to announced it will only let 20% of its capacity in at one time. I don’t exactly know how many people that is. Likely there will be long lines. Now with everyone out of work, there is no “better time” to go. Everyone is out all the time.

I’m feeling very upset and smothered by all of this. I understand that it’s necessary as my state has a very high number of cases/deaths but I just...I can’t. I don’t know how to describe how I’m feeling.
