If able, please read these for some perspective and some positivity. When things seem dark, they are often worse in the time than in hindsight. What we are seeing now is not a whole lot different than H1N1 in many cases. Many don't even remember H1N1 by now, but at the time it was impactful.

H1N1
-1 million cases within the first 2 months in the US alone
-9.8 per 10k hospitalization rate vs COVID that is 9.4 per 10k currently
-Death estimates upwards revised to 575k by CDC several years after for H1N1
-WHO estimated that 500k people die of general influenza each year

So we should be cautious of course and take care not to spread germs, but at the same time not give ourselves undue stress, which in turn hurts immune systems.

There is light at the end of the tunnel...
