Meet Kira M.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px|10px|false|false” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

Last time I looked it up, the population of Washington State was around 7.6 million, give or take, and the most recent data and the numbers that we have from all kinds of survey instruments and all kinds of data that we’ve been collecting and looking at for a year has shown consistently numbers in the three to four and even upwards of four million people in our state who have had clinically significant levels of depression or anxiety.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” text_font_size=”28px” text_line_height=”32px” custom_margin=”30px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||10px|10px|false|false” text_font_size_tablet=”28px” text_font_size_phone=”18px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

Four million people in our state have had\u00a0clinically significant levels of depression\u00a0or anxiety.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px|10px|false|false” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

And that includes teenagers and kids. That is an incredible number, that’s an incredibly high percentage of the population. And keep in mind, that’s clinically significant criteria. That means that the symptoms people have are strong enough to interfere with their ability to take care of themselves, take care of their kids or work. That is not considering mild, mild symptoms and mild things that affect, I would say, a significantly bigger portion of the of the population than that.<\/p>\n

If half of the population is experiencing something, it’s no longer abnormal.
<\/strong>Part of what we need to do and what we owe it to ourselves about this whole disaster recovery thing is recognizing how normal it is to feel weird, to feel confused and to get mad and feel like you just can’t function sometimes and to recognize that means nothing about what you’re capable of or who you are as a person.<\/p>\n

That is how your brain responds to stress. And it couldn’t be more natural and incredibly common. So it’s not a fault. It’s not a weakness. That’s what we have to do to reduce this message that there’s something wrong because, yeah, there’s something wrong. But it’s the circumstances, not you.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” text_font_size=”28px” text_line_height=”32px” custom_margin=”30px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||10px|10px|false|false” text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”18px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” text_line_height_tablet=”” text_line_height_phone=”” text_line_height_last_edited=”on|desktop” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

Yeah, there’s something wrong.\u00a0But it’s the circumstances, not you.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px|10px|false|false” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

The human brain handles stress in a very known way
<\/strong><\/p>\n

So in terms of really common experiences that kids and adults alike are experiencing across the state is based on how our brains handle disasters and traumatic events and stress, and that is something we all have in common \u2014 no matter what other resources people have access to. The human brain handles stress in a very known way. We know how that affects our bodies, why we eat carbs all the time, why we keep snacking on everything. We know why we get confused so easily.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Most adults right now feel like they have symptoms of ADHD or early-onset dementia, and it\u2019s terrifying. That\u2019s not to take anything away from either of those two conditions, but the fact that we walk into another room and we have no idea why we went in there and we can never remember the day of the week. Those are normal cognitive and neurological responses for how tired and how much stress we have been under collectively for more than a year now.<\/p>\n

\u00a0So one of my most favorite parts about my job is to share information with people about how what they are going through is really, really normal, especially that cognitive stuff, because most people think they\u2019re losing it \u2014 like it\u2019s just them. You go to the store for bread and vegetables and you come out with ice cream and chocolate. People get distracted and you can\u2019t focus on things, and that\u2019s incredibly normal. And for our kids, too. And to have patience with yourself. Everybody\u2019s emotion regulation is so compromised right now.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” text_font_size=”28px” text_line_height=”32px” custom_margin=”30px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||10px|10px|false|false” text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”18px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” text_line_height_tablet=”” text_line_height_phone=”” text_line_height_last_edited=”on|desktop” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

Most people think they’re losing it.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Source Sans Pro||||||||” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px|10px|false|false” border_width_left=”2px” border_color_left=”#2d94e3″]<\/p>\n

It\u2019s very common to snap at your spouse or partner or your kids or another driver on the road \u2014 then a minute later, when your brain catches up with itself, you think, \u201cWhere did that come from? Why did I just do that?\u201d And it\u2019s normal. That emotional up and down, where you get out of bed like it\u2019s going to be a great day, it\u2019s sunny today. Twenty minutes later, it\u2019s the worst day you\u2019ve ever had.<\/p>\n

\u00a0And those cycles are just incredibly common right now, as are issues with sleep, dysregulated sleep. It\u2019s either you can\u2019t turn your brain off and you have the hamster wheel spinning again and again, or you fall asleep no problem, and your brain wakes up at 3:00 in the morning ready to go. And you\u2019re not, because you haven\u2019t had enough rest. So disrupted sleep, behavioral stuff, maybe acting out a little bit, maybe swearing or being more aggressive than normal.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Those are common patterns, too. Not wanting to get out of bed, feeling a little helpless, snacking. I already mentioned the emotion dysregulation. These are all really, really common responses right now.<\/p>\n
