Oddbean new post about login | logout @ad951bfd Not really. But I have experienced the same thing with people contacting me about very strong war anxiety, where they really don’t need factual information from a military analyst but rather coping guidance from a therapist.
@66087130 @ad951bfd does positive action help? Often doing something to meet a threat helps with feelings of powerlessness. And imo joining hemvärnet is a form of climate and defence positive action:)
@b870d4c8 @66087130 that's interesting - I hadn't thought about war causing that kind of anxiety but of course it's obvious when you say it. In fact the latest "case" I had was anxious about climate, droughts + wildfires (not surprised this year) but also Russia invasion of Denmark. Had not otherwise connected these! But this is why I often feel there is a general anxiety that latches on to climate.
