When the situation is not in our control then as a human we used to have these kind of thoughts and its natural to be afraid in these times. But remember, just thinking about problem will not solve it. Think about the solution. Because the situation is not in your control but getting out of it is. You can start building your immune system and ask your parents to do it as well. People having good immune system have far lower risk from Corona virus. Do some research. Stop listening to news and do your own research and you will get to know that its not as big deal you were thinking it is. And start building a routine. Indulge your mind with some activities and you will start feeling better. Please let me know if this thing helps.

Kemraj, I'm sorry to hear that you're really struggling. The pandemic is an unprecedented time in history. No one had imagined that we would be sitting in a lockdown. Dealing with this is not easy. Your fear is understandable. Are you alone or with family?
