I literally only watch or engage with positive information now.. for some reason when your first diagnosed searching on line takes you down a really negative dark rabbit hole thank goodness I managed to crawl back out ,videos like this save you 🥰
I have long covid. And I feel like it’s turned my life into a social hell. I am an extrovert that used to work out everyday. I used to go out with friends every week. Slowly everyone disappeared and nobody asks how I am doing. (When I did have a little energy, and went out as desperate for social situations I was told not to mention “long covid” By friends anymore -I guess I was a downer.)I spent the past 4 days watching beautiful blue skies inside or in bed as I’m too tired to do anything. The lack of social contact after three days drove me into a crazy depressed moment last night. Non-stop crying which wiped me out completely today. I’m completely isolated. it’s really unnatural for me. This can’t be my life. I feel like everyday I am wasting time as I’m too tired to accomplish anything from the extreme fatigue. I don’t know how much more isolation I can take. 😢 before this I was always happy always upbeat! This is not me!
I have 4 friends who knew me before I was ill (who have stayed) and only one I’ve met since being chronically ill. That one new friend, although she’s not chronically ill, gets me way more than the others.
The section on being a different person and needing new friends in something I've been grappling with for the last 6 months. Thank you for sharing that - I've said it many times - I feel like a different person. It must be a strange phenomena - illness is almost spiritual on some level.
What about people where their chronic condition gets progressively worse? I'm very positive about my situation, but I know my health is not going to get better. I'm sorry, but talking about people recovering is a real trigger for me. Mentally I'm in a great place and I make the best of my situation, based on my health that day, but getting back on the "medical merri-go-round" to get better when I have a chronic condition that is not able to get better, is not something I'm prepared to do. I'm in a very healing environment but my health continues to deteriorate. "Recovery" is not possible for me, unfortunately.
I appreciate your determination in showing me I can be healed from the Herpes simplex virus , Thanking you for your perseverance , support , and love , thank you Dr Ehire
