“All day long, we’re trying to protect ourselves physically [against covid-19],” says psychotherapist Dana Dorfman. Unlike other traumatic experiences such as 9/11 when people sought the solace of physical intimacy, “humans are contaminating each other with something invisible, and we’re being conditioned to not let anything penetrate us.” So, she says, it logically follows that some people may feel more guarded. The physical vigilance required for our safety right now runs counter to intimacy, and it can be difficult to reconcile that.
