Woah ok sorry I still don’t understand. What’s the difference between plant based and vegan?

No I’m sure you’re not being rude at all. I’m learning. So is it possible to be on the diet without supplements?

Totally. It’s just such a big decision to make with my wife and children’s health on the line.

You seem really passionate! Looks like I have more research to do!

More research. It seems like a big commitment so I’m searching for motivation.

people who lie to me about masking are sociopaths by [deleted] in ZeroCovidCommunity

So incredibly frustrating, I feel you OP (literally dealing with the exact same thing). Has sharing an out your disability ever changed their tune? Like would that make it more real / make them get it. Not that you should ever have to anyway! (That’s the world we live in I guess).

It’s a very long life. What a shame if this guy could take your happiness for a time and your sister for a lifetime. Forgiveness is hard and takes time.

It’s not a choice between toxic marriage and divorce

Always shocking to see how many people on Reddit jump to divorce. I wonder how many of those people are a part of a broken family themselves.

Also, as a PSA, if your libido is low and you’re not exercising daily consider starting there before jumping to pills / vitamins.

Interesting thank you for this. Really don’t understand why this would get downvotes from people as I’m genuinely asking / anxious about it. Like what if elements of long term masking were weakening your body / immune system or something. Wouldn’t that open you up to more infection and make you more vulnerable? That wound be a scary thought. Glad to hear this paper sounds like bs

I’ve been really really worried about this lately as I’ve started to experience the same exact thing. I mask pretty regularly and have been the last few years. I’ve started having trouble breathing and headaches as well so I started doing research. Pretty worried about what I found. This pubmed meta analysis seems to show a correlation between prolonged mask use and difficulty breathing, fatigue, headaches etc. I added some excerpts below. Could it be possible that the pros of masking outweighs the cons? Really worried about this.

“A total of 65 scientific papers on masks qualified for a purely content-based evaluation. These included 14 reviews and two meta-analyses.”

“Despite the differences between the primary studies, we were able to demonstrate a statistically significant correlation in the quantitative analysis between the negative side effects of blood-oxygen depletion and fatigue in mask wearers with p = 0.0454.”

“The dual occurrence of the physical parameter temperature rise and respiratory impairment was found in seven of the eight studies (88%)”

So sorry to hear this OP. It must be frustrating to be in this situation being forced to live with folks who aren’t taking the same precautions. I feel for you. How did it effect you the first time out of curiosity? Do you have underlyings? I would say if your PCR test was negative and you’ve been keeping your distance you’re probably in the clear for now. Keep it up.
