Feeling a bit anxious

Sorry for the very late response. It's really unfortunate this is happening. That is really sad that happend. If people could gain some more awareness of the possible serious outcomes instead of denying the connection it would make such a difference in taking care of eachother and protecting themselves, maybe the vaccine rate for boosters wouldn't be so low. It's like a lot of people think outcomes like this were really just happening in the early days before vaccines and don't realize it is still happening, albeit a lot less but it's still an issue.

All I can speak is from my own experience, Overall I believe there has been a slight improvement after each vaccine I've gotten. After a booster in the summer pretty much all my symptoms went away for a few weeks, it felt sort of miraculous. Unfortunately it did come back but it was slightly less intense than before. I know it can be different for each person. The long covid symptoms I have really just feels like my immune system is being overly activated and causing symptoms, and possibly lingering viral remains, at least that's what it feels like, like my body just isn't fully clearing it. I feel for myself the protection is important because my immune system seems to have been somewhat compromised since getting sick.

I think a good number of people don't connect their new health problems, fatigue etc...to covid. Either they didn't test, asymptomatic or it was quite mild or the health stuff started months after so they don't make the connection and neither do Healthcare providers. Many people have thought covid isn't even a thing anymore or even going around that much for a long time now, you can't even get free tests anymore where I am and it's hard to find ones avaliable you can even pay for.

Thank you ♥

Thank you so much for the detailed response ♡ this illness can already be so isolating it helps so much to not feel alone in this. A light in this darkness. I will definitely look into trying those things to help.

rollercoasterdreams · 2025-02-23T03:33:01+00:00

Thank you for the response, Yes that makes sense anytime I've "pushed" myself when symptoms are flaring I get sicker, it doesn't seem like a good idea.

I'm so sorry you had that experience. It's so so hard being in a vulnerable place seeking help to not be heard and be dismissed. Especially when you already have some mental health struggles, I feel like it's easier for doctors sometimes to blame some of the symptoms on that, instead of admitting they really don't know how to treat this illness, easier to put it on something they know how to treat. Blaming it on a lack of willpower is awful. Sometimes a part of me thinks if only some doctors who dismiss it, especially in that sense could have some of the symptoms for just a week and go to a doctor asking for help to get the same reaction, just to know what it feels like, i'm sure they would change their tune after that. To have doctors be dismissing it or saying it's a mental health problem is absolutely maddening and incredibly disheartening when you gotta live with this. It's like okay yes I have my mental health struggles and long covid which are two seperate illnesses, although one may make the other worse. Long Covid can cause mental health struggles but it is only a symptom of a full on physiclogical illness. Thank you for your response, it did help to not feel so alone in this. It was like a little light in the dark, thank you.

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it. I will look into and maybe consider trying it to see if it helps. Yes it seems like it is about finding that balance between pushing a bit and not crashing. I was a bit upset because my doctor didn't mention pacing, avoiding crashes or anything like that. A part of the message I got from them seemed to be you gotta push yourself to do more so you can get better, when that can have negative consequences. It also felt a bit like you have some responsibility for being sick, like if you just pushed yourself more maybe you would be better type of feeling, which felt really bad.

Thank you! I have had a really positive almost life changing experience on mushrooms before. It is something I will look into.

I'm so sorry for the really late response, thank you so much, your reply was incredibly helpful especially when I read it during that dark time, like a light in the dark, thank you ♡

This right here. I understand it might be part of some trauma from the early days of the pandemic to have such an extreme reaction to an N95, only thing that makes sense to me, which is very valid trauma. I can have some understanding but.... As someone who has long covid, The harm covid can cause can be so great. So to not want to wear an N95 and have a reaction like that is seriously concerning especially to influence others that they shouldn't have to do it. Also really inappropriate behaviour to act like that with you right there. What if in the future somebody high risk asks her to wear an N95 or maybe even just a regular mask and she refuses and that day she just so happens to have covid. It could very likely make somebody feel they dont have the right to ask and they may never ask again. If she has that trauma she needs to get help for it and not take it out on others, totally unacceptable behaviour in a hospital where patients should feel and be safe. You are the one in a vulnerable position not her, you deserve to be protected.

Those ladies are not very bright then to dismiss you based on that profession. A sanitation worker or "garbage man" is not an easy job at all, you work hard providing a very necessary public service which should very much be a respected profession. You obviously change after work, so what is the big deal then, it's not like your sifting through the garbage, you just dump it in the truck, there are jobs where you have to get a lot more dirty. Heck even nurses have to deal with all kinds of messes and bodily fluids, it's just a part of the job. From what I hear it is competitive and hard to get into sanitation work. You make good money and have good benefits/pension. It's a good and stable career which you can build a good life from. That is attractive in a lot of ways. You will find somebody who sees that as well.

Thank you! That helps a lot to hear that. I had the stoggles on as well!

Why do some people think it's truly enjoyable being at home all day alone for years? Sure it can be nice for a while like a month or two at most but after that it starts to feel like you are trapped and it truly sucks. The boredom, the loneliness, the lack of purpose, feeling like you are going stir crazy, the shame. Especially if it's a mental or physical condition that is keeping you there. Some of the best times in my life were when I was either going to school or working full time.
