We rent places, circles of communication, organizations. It’s hard for us. But time is such that you need to support each other, regardless of views or place of residence.
We find ourselves in such a situation that we just need to be able to establish contacts with strangers. For some it is just fun, and for some it can be a real challenge.
We should not forget that cooperation and support for each other affect our endurance and resistance to external circumstances. So, unity is really important.
Meet
Try to talk like a person to a person without labels and stereotypes. Today it is not so important “where”, but “how you feel” and “how I can help”.
Avoid uncertainty
This is what depletes our anxiety. Therefore, it is important to outline clear boundaries and rules by which people will exist. Identify specific household responsibilities in a compact host community. Discuss a comfortable daily routine, comfort habits, identify common and individual areas where personal belongings are stored (or can be used by everyone), and communicate your needs.
Do not compare the severity of the consequences for others
You cannot estimate the extent of another person’s loss, the strength of his or her experiences. The trauma of an event is determined not by the event itself, but by our perception and reaction, which depend on individual characteristics. So don’t decide who is heavier and who is lighter.
Take care of your psycho-emotional state
It will not always be difficult, it is temporary. Our psyche most of all wants to help us survive and return to balance. Every day we spend a lot of energy on adaptation and readjustment to new conditions. Give yourself time and be honest with yourself. And let other people do it.
