Name: Nicole Spector NBC News Channel

Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-b74p@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: NBC News Channel

Deadline: 2:00 PM EST - 27 August

Query:

Following my coverage of crisis fatigue, guilt and many other
uncomfortable feelings in the age of this pandemic, I'm writing
a piece for NBC NEWS/TODAY.com about becoming desensitized to
mass death. Would you have a PHD PSYCH source who would like to
lend exclusive comments? my deadline is Thursday 1pm EST.

Here are some questions I am looking for NEUROSCIENTISTS and
PSYCHOLOGISTS to answer.

-Are you seeing clients worried they are becoming "desensitized"
to death? What trends are you observing around this?

-How come we were so upset by say, 50 deaths due to Covid-19 and
now we're at practically 200k and the feeling is WEIRD? It's not
always "upset" feeling per se, more like dead inside or terror?
It's just very weird, I feel.

-Why is becoming desensitized to death, or feeling like you are,
possibly a good thing? Or at least, a natural thing?

-The death toll is so frightening. Is the fright making us turn
off?

-How do we find empathy and understanding within ourselves
without caving? Or rather, how can we think about this death
toll without succumbing to terror?

-Are there things we can do to feel like we're perhaps
recognizing the dead? Like gestures of mourning that help set us
free a little bit? (Looking for 5-8 USEFUL TIPS TO FEEL BETTER!)

Thank you thank you. Please please please confirm your quotes
are exclusive to NBC News! And please share your pronoun and
website and any other details I need to know about your title!
THANK YOU
