I think our hunter-gatherer past has a lot to do with many of our foibles, and I find thinking of myself as someone with hunter-gatherer instincts as a helpful way of understanding a lot of my behavior.
Hoarding is a common and understandable reaction to fear; please don't beat yourself up if you've been hoarding TP, or hand sanitizer, or whatever. Instead, be bold and share some of your hoard with those in need. Especially if you have protective equipment (masks, gloves) stored up - many hospitals are in dire need.
