People are asking if how they are feeling is normal.
Dr. Andrea Raby with Bayless Integrated Healthcare shared a few tips to keep in mind during these trying times.
"I tell my patients, what do you like to do before COVID-19 ... if you don't want to go out and get treatment formally, go out and run a few miles, or do yoga, cooking and things like that," Raby said, adding, "I try to normalize it for them because at the end, it's important to get treatment somehow."
