We picture parties with friends, dinners at restaurants, and hugs with loved ones. While those may be heart-warming images, not everyone is filled with simple excitement at the thought of restrictions ending. For some, the thought of returning to \u201clife as usual\u201d also brings up feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, and dread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you feel this way, you might be wondering, \u201cHow can I possibly feel dread at the idea of restrictions being lifted? So many people have suffered. I should be ready to return to all the people and places that I love.\u201d On the surface, it may seem illogical to feel anxious towards something so positive, but in reality, it is perfectly normal. Human beings adapt very quickly to their circumstances, even when those circumstances are less than ideal. It&#8217;s understandable to feel a mix of emotions towards any sort of change, and this particular change is not something we&#8217;ve had to navigate before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you are a<a data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1850\" href=\"https:\/\/ryandykes.com\/index.php\/2021\/04\/07\/what-does-it-mean-to-be-sensitive\/\"> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">highly-sensitive person<\/span><\/a> or someone prone to anxiety, you are even more likely to experience apprehension towards change. Even positive change can feel threatening because there is an element of uncertainty. Instead of blaming yourself for how you\u2019re feeling, I encourage you to listen to your emotions and use them to help guide you through this process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Manage Reintegration Anxiety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are 8 suggestions to help you reintegrate back into society in a way that feels safe and respects your unique process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Resist comparing yourself. <\/strong>Remember that you have unique needs and that your comfort level may not be the same as the next person&#8217;s. It\u2019s okay to take your time and to listen to what <em>you<\/em> want and need.<\/li><li><strong>Stick to your boundaries and limits. <\/strong>Trust that you know what feels right to you, and stick to what you know about yourself. It&#8217;s important to know your limits, and it&#8217;s okay to stick to those even when others don&#8217;t understand or agree.<\/li><li><strong>Create a sense of safety.<\/strong> Your home has become your safe haven over this past year, and now, you\u2019re going to be venturing outside of that. Think about who, what, and where makes you feel safe. Create a list of your \u201csafe people and places,&#8221; and seek those out first.<\/li><li><strong>Push yourself but not too much.<\/strong> Make sure you are venturing outside your comfort zone, but the challenges you choose to take on should only be mildly-moderately uncomfortable without being too overwhelming.<\/li><li><strong>Take it in stages.<\/strong> Expose yourself to new people, places, and situations in a slow, measured way. Start small, like a walk outside in a different area. Take in the sights and sounds, and pay attention to how you feel. When you are ready to do more, start with your \u201csafe people and places&#8221; list. The bottom line is to give yourself space and time and respect your process.<\/li><li><strong>Celebrate the small steps.<\/strong> It may be easy to get frustrated and tell yourself how you \u201cshould\u201d be feeling. Try to let go of any preconceived notions, and celebrate the small milestones and steps you take on this journey.<\/li><li><strong>Process your experiences. <\/strong>This is a lot to process, and you will need to talk about it. While most people will struggle in some way to reintegrate into society, not everyone will understand exactly how <em>you<\/em> feel. Seek out the people who do, and be open about what this has been like for you.<\/li><li><strong>Use an official guide<\/strong>. Using an official guide, like the CDC guidelines, can help you make decisions and understand exactly what feels okay to you. You don&#8217;t have to know it all, and looking to experts can help you more clearly identify what feels safe to you.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you go through this process, listen to your feelings and respond compassionately and thoughtfully. Remember: we have never had to navigate a situation like this before. This is new for you, and it will take some time. It\u2019s okay if it feels unfamiliar and anxiety-provoking. It will get easier with time, and don&#8217;t forget to enjoy the moment sometimes too. You&#8217;ve earned it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ryan Dykes, LCSW<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sub>This article is an informational guide on how to reintegrate socially when it is safe and recommended to do so.
