For people who are feeling overwhelmed: that’s normal. One of the main messages I want to get out to the vets is to normalise the enormity and the depth of emotion that they’re going to experience. Because it’s new. And to not pathologise it. 

We live in a world where when we have an emotion we almost want to give it a Broadway musical: “Why am I feeling sad today? Let’s focus on that sadness.”  But in actual fact - it’s not a healthy way to deal with day tot day emotions. So when people are going to bed and they are reliving what they’ve experienced and they are fatigued and they’re thinking:  “My goodness, I’ve get to get up and face this again tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow…” and on top of that they’ve lost their own properties, or they’re still at risk of loosing their properties.

To feel overwhelmed - can I just say: A HUNDRED PERCENT NORMAL!

The people were feeling overwhelmed that's normal.But I think one of the main messages I'd like to get through to the vets is to normalize the abnormality and the depth of emotion that they're going to be experiencing because it's new and to not pathologize it, you know, I think we live in a very much in a world where if you have an emotion, we almost want to give it a Broadway musical like You know, why am I feeling sad today?
Like let's focus on that sadness.Let's and in actual fact, it's not it's not a healthy way to deal with every day to day emotions.So when people are going to bed at night and they're reliving what they've experienced and they're fatigued and they're thinking my goodness.I've got to get up and I've got a face this and do it again tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow and then on top of that people have lost their own properties or they're still at risk of losing their property to feel overwhelmed.
Can I just say a hundred percent?off
