CLEAN THE AIR OUT A LITTLE, SO THERE IS SOME GOOD NEWS WITH THAT. I CAN BREATHE A LITTLE EASIER HEARING THAT. AND TONIGHT WE ARE HEARING THAT WAKING UP TO WHAT LOOKS LIKE MARS IS TAKING A TOLL ON MANY PEOPLES DENTAL HEALTH. MANY PEOPLE SAY THIS EERIE SCENE IS GIVING THEM APOCALYPSE ANXIETY. Reporter: RIGHT NOW WE ARE AT A CAFE IN NORTH BEACH, IT'S 11:00 AT NIGHT, IT'S DARK, AND IT SUPPOSED TO BE, BUT LET ME SHOW YOU SOME VIDEO I SHOT EARLIER TODAY, THIS IS 10:00 IN THE MORNING, AND THIS IS VERY SAME SPOT, NEARLY AS DARK, WITH A TANGERINE SKY, THIS IS OTHERWORLDLY, NOTHING LIKE I'VE EVER SEEN. AND FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE, IT WAS UNSETTLING. TODAY'S CREEPY ORANGE SKY MADE A STRONG IMPRESSION. IT JUST KIND OF FEELS LIKE THE SKY IS FALLING, IT'S HEAVY. SOME PEOPLE TOLD ME THEY FELT UNSETTLED ALL DAY. DISTRACTED, ANXIOUS. IT IS APOCALYPTIC. I FELT LIKE WE WERE UNDER ATTACK OR SOMETHING. THIS IS VERY UNUSUAL, THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED FOR ANYONE. THIS THERAPIST SAYS SHE IS NOT SURPRISED PEOPLE ARE FEELING UNEASY. I WOULD SAY IT IS A PRETTY HEALTHY REACTION. WE ARE WIRED TO HAVE A WHAT IS THIS REACTION TO SOMETHING THAT IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AND ESPECIALLY SOMETHING THAT IS VERY NEW. WHILE IT CAN BE EXPLAINED BY SCIENCE, IT IS NATURAL TO PEOPLE HAVING AN OUTSIDE REACTION TO SEEING THE ORANGE INSTEAD OF BLUE. ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OF COVID-19. OUR ISOLATION IS TAKING AWAY SOME OF OUR USUAL COPING MECHANISMS. STILL, ADAPTING TO STRANGE NORMS HAS GOTTEN US THIS FAR. IT FEELS LIKE ONE MORE THING.
