The View From Here – Cave Syndrome Is A Real Thing

Are you feeling reluctant to get back “out there”?  If restrictions lifted tomorrow, and everything was re-opened, would you have any hesitation jumping back into pre-pandemic life?

Concerts?  Dining in at your favourite restaurant?  Social gatherings?

There are some people who are downright terrified to leave their house and one psychiatrist out of Florida is calling it “Cave syndrome”.  We’ve been isolated, spending so much time at home in our “caves”, following all the safety measures that a lot of people feel reluctant to venture back outside and he says it’s all very normal.  

I understand that.  For so many reasons.  I’ve gotten way too comfortable at home.
