<p>UAB clinical psychologist Josh Klapow, Ph.D., says that the potential double whammy of Hurricane Irma&#39;s approach on the heels of Hurricane Harvey has played havoc on Americans still processing the first disaster.</p>

<p>&quot;This is very much an emotional band-width issue,&quot; Klapow says. &quot;There is no time for people to regroup, refresh and prepare for another catastrophic event.&quot;</p>

<p>Klapow says people in the possible paths of Irma will need to be reminded now more than ever of the need to take precautions.</p>

<p>&quot;There is a lot of disaster burnout and people are yearning for good news,&quot; he said. &quot;There is a desire to take a collective deep breath and relax. It&#39;s hard to gear back up for another serious event.&quot;</p>

<p>He says authorities and the media need to stay on message: have emergency kits ready, know your evacuation route, have a communications plan, attend to your pets.</p>

<p>Klapow says the stress on first responders is extremely acute. The round the clock efforts by first responders in Texas and Louisiana took a major toll on their ability to respond. Stamina and endurance are affected. The long term pressures from Harvey, now mixed with the uncertainty of Irma&#39;s landfall can lead to exhaustion, anxiety, frustration, anger, aggression, and hopelessness.</p>
