We just wanted to give you an update on Dianna’s health, since she’s been sick for a while and may not be returning for longer than we previously thought.
Her science videos are postponed until she can make a full recovery. We really appreciate everyone's support here on her channel. We know Dianna wishes she could be here making videos and happily physicsing, but right now she needs to stay in bed and away from work until she makes a full recovery.

Hi Everyone. Please ignore any comments or direct messages of users asking for donations that claim to either be, or work for Dianna. There are some spam/scammers *posing* as physics girl to ask for money. The Physics Girl team will never reach out directly through comments or messages to ask for donations of any kind. Thank you.
(Levi typing) I can only reply to comments on her channel. I can’t post my own. But please know that even though we are doing our best to report/block any users that do this, there is a lot of traffic so some still try. Again, Patreon is how we are accepting donations. The Physics Girl team will never reach out directly to ask for donations of any kind. Thank you.
I've flagged more than one for spam. 👍
@@ewoksalot I just reported one scammer for "promoting terrorism" 👍😆
@@ewoksalot Me too.
Can you share any updates since this video?
Quick shout-out to Dianna's husband. Being a full-time caregiver and watching a loved one suffer is ROUGH, and I hope he's getting the help he needs.
In particular I hope he's getting counseling, because you know this'll be messing with his head.
@Rania I can't believe you'd post a vid that is simply an ad for I presume is your work. Folks don't bother.
His supportive words to her were priceless.
HE'S AMAZING
and from what i can understand, all this happened/started only a couple months after they got properly married? they didnt even get to enjoy the honeymoon period properly :(
For people wondering, there was an update a few days ago on her Patreon! The news is neutral, i suppose, stating that she hasn't made any significant improvements as most of the progress consists of stutter steps, moving forward then back just as quickly. At the least, it seems that she's improved from where she was when she was first hospitalized, but the recovery doesnt appear to be swift. However, the tone of the post (which asks for cute photos of dogs and words of encouragement) implies that Dianna was able to communicate needs verbally, so that's something. However, if i had to guess, we likely won't be hearing about a miraculous recovery anytime soon.
Thanks for the update. I was just checking here to see if there was any news on her condition.
Oh no! Is this true? Please post a source link for this information.
@@professorhayhe's a bad troll, dont pay attention.
@@harijha7560Lol 😂
I came to check back too. Thank you for the update.
Her editor has posted an update on Facebook, She is feeling a bit better since the past few weeks!
Thats so good to hear, thanks for sharing!
Just a comment to get this more on top, so others can read it.
Thank you!
I periodically check for updates and this is the first I've found.
Thank you, such good news
Thank you for sharing this! 💜
I found out about this channel and Dianna when I was just watching TH-cam videos at 3am. In those few short videos, I learned so much more than I could've expected and it filled me with so much joy and curiosity. Then I finally find her channel again only for my heart to break to know that this is happening to her. I pray that she will recover and that she'll be better than ever, and I am so thankful she has so many wonderful people around her looking out for her and providing for her. Hopefully one day I'll open up TH-cam to see that she's better and she can teach us about the wonder of this world again.
Maybe spend that $75 advocating for people to stop doing what caused this instead. But you do have a BIG heart I’m sure.
@@7fallnoting cause this it just bad luck .
Shame on you noting could've preventing that
I hope she recovers much earlier and surprise us all, but in the mean time, she is constantly on my mind, with all the best wishes.
yeah i used to watch her vids loong ago so this kinda came out of the blue and was really depressing, best of wishes indeed
Mehdi!!! Make her an “electrified long covid ender adaptor”
Sadly a lot of people with long covid get worse for a long time.
@@starlinguk (Levi here) Yeah unfortunately it looks like years to maybe a life thing. I think we're all pretty shocked at just how long it might take to recover. She's been sick since last summer and it's only gotten worse...
@@ndbaker74 conspiratorial quackery is just as much helpful as everyones 'get well' comments
Former employee of PhysicsGirl here. Dianna is the sweetest most caring boss I've ever had. The times I was in a call with her or in the office, her energy was always so warm and welcoming and had me excited to be there. I hope that the specialist can get her to where she once was. Kyle, Levi & Dianna are the absolute sweetest, and I hope that things get better soon.
@@Canyoureadmydeadpan full vaccination is not 100% protection from long COVID, it just improves your chances of not getting it.
@@Canyoureadmydeadpan As a medical person… Your wrong… people still get COVID and LONG COVID even after the vaccine! and if you can’t say something nice don’t say anything… arrrrrrrrrrrr
@@Canyoureadmydeadpan How brainwashed to you have to be to believe the vaccine is fully effective 😂it's not even THAT effective yet alone fully effective, if anything it could've made her condition worse.
Not to mention, getting vaccinated should be one's personal choice and we shouldn't villainize them for making choices regarding THEIR health
@@Canyoureadmydeadpan I have to admit that the question occured to me too. But ultimately it's not relevant to know for any single case, since the vaccination does not seem to work for every person 100% perfect every single time.
See, for instance, this article in "nature" titled "Long COVID risk falls only slightly after vaccination, huge study shows" from May 25th of last year that I just found!
Thank you for being such a great physics teacher! I hope you'll get well soon.
Very kind donation.
can i donate via phone pay or google pay. or any way to UPI.

@@Wall_flower You should start teaching imo, grammar teacher
@@Wall_flower what an aaahole. Skmum
The fact that Chronic Fatigue is not classed as a disability infuriates me.
I have Chronic Fatigue, this time last year I could only make it to the bathroom if i dragged myself along the floor. Ive improved but I'm always flaring up.
I have to be so careful. All the best to everyone ❤
Same here, with fibromyalgia. I have very limited energy and can only sustainably work a few hours a day before a headache kicks in. I’m glad my employer has been very understanding, but this has severely limited my career.
The problem with CF is that it's so mysterious. Many people claim to have CFS but further study shows that their condition is based on something else. There was a recent case where a woman's purported CFS as the result of CO poisoning instead. It by itself is a condition, but not a disease per se.
Pantothenic Acid and Folate may be of help
Due to long covid, researchers are finally starting to take CFS/PANS/PANDAS (post strep) long Lyme etc seriously. Hopefully this new interest will mean treatment for millions around the world who were considered hysterical for centuries
I'm tearing up because it is so hard when you don't have a care giver or even a friend for support. The dragging yourself to the bathroom is all too relatable to me. I'm exreamly fortunate to have gotten disability. It covers the room I rent while my full time job is taking care of myself. It is sometimes just not possible alone.
I have ME/CFS, and it can be debilitating. I just want to let you know that a year and a half ago, I was stuck in bed and my family had to look after me because I couldn't do anything for myself. Now I'm in my first year of my degree, and I'm slowly gaining back my independence. It's not perfect and recovery isn't easy, but it's definitely possible and it does get better
So happy for you!
It's usually psychosomatic. You and the girl in this video should get the therapy you need to not feel so sleepy.
@@Peepeepoopoo42069..great. There is no scientifically proven cause for ME/CFS but fantastic that you know what causes it and have a solution, no-one has ever even thought about, because they clearly aren't as smart as you are. Really, you are a big help here!
@@Peepeepoopoo42069.. ah that would be wonderful. unfortunately I've been in therapy since I was eleven years old
@@Peepeepoopoo42069.. thats simply wrong
I almost cried while watching this update. Watching a girl with such a bubbly, effervescent personality get to a point where she can't even read messages of support, tears me up inside. I had to fight sickness and disability in my younger years. You can fight this, Dianna, I know you can.
Almost?
Don’t know about most people but these tears are flowing but not of sadness but hope for a speedy recovery.
@@DavidVerch This should be a message to the anti-vaxxers and those anti-mask (The government isn't going to tell me what to do) types who contributed to Covid's spread (and deaths) the past 3 years in the US.
I lost 6 co-workers and 2 family members over the last 2.5 years.
I totally cried. Been watching her on TH-cam since, gosh, forever?
I cried too... I love Dianna's energy and her passion for physics. sending 🙏🏽's to her
Hope recovery is going well. I am praying for y’all.
oh my very nice of you! i hope shes doing better its been 8 months
Its been 8 months. I hope Dianna is doing better and recovering. You have my best wishes and prayers! I hope this can help.❤
2 dollars? Lmao how broke are you?
@@LickMyMusketBallsYankeehow much did you donate to make a statement like that
@@julianzhou9394something is better than nothing tbh
@@julianzhou9394what does that even mean
@@julianzhou9394bffr at least he donates unlike you
I just wanted to offer a ray of hope - I had ME/CFS about 15 years ago, but have made a full recovery. It took probably 5 years to get back up to speed, but it's possible. Patience, love, support from loved ones, taking it step-by-step and not rushing it is the key. Best wishes to you Dianna and your family and friends.
@@user-ci6iu5rf4r As far as I know - and please, whoever knows more about this, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong - it's less of a "not being able to feel happy"/"feeling unloved/unlovable", although that can be a result of just not being able to live your life for months or years, as is often the case with ME/CFS, and more a problem of overstimulation/overexertion. Basically, every movement, every emotion, every thought, every sensation takes energy to do/process and for people with ME/CFS the threshold of how much is too much gets lowered. And it's a negative feedback cycle, where everytime you go over the threshold (i.e. push yourself to go to an event or just take a longer walk than you can handle), it can trigger an even worse fatigue (like, a really bad few days right afterwards and a chronic worsening of the condition in the future)
What helped the most?
@@user-ci6iu5rf4r They're not the same. I know this because I have both ME/CFS and depressive episodes!
- ME/CFS commonly arises after an infection of some kind, as opposed to depression.
- Depression makes life feel meaningless, this is how it saps your energy. You just feel sad and like there's no such thing as having a good day, so there's no reason to get out of bed. ME/CFS makes you physically tired. You feel exhausted in every cell of your body and even though you want to do stuff and are motivated to, you cannot.
- Depressive episodes usually resolve within ~6 months. ME/CFS lasts a minimum of 6 months.
- You can get restful sleep when you're depressed, it will just do nothing to improve your mood. ME/CFS makes every morning feel like you haven't slept at all.
- Light and sound sensitivity are symptoms of ME/CFS, as shown here, but are not symptoms of depression.
- One of the core symptoms of ME/CFS is post-exertional malaise, where your symptoms worsen substantially after what would otherwise be light exertion 24-48 hours after the exertion. Depression is a constant.
All in all, the conditions are very different. If you want, there's many resources out there you can google.
@@user-ci6iu5rf4r it's very different to depression, it's you want to do something but you can't cuz you're body doesn't take anything anymore. Just imagine having the flu 24/7 without getting rid of it
What helped you? Glad to hear!
Dianna has played a significant part in my daughter’s love for science. I can’t thank her enough for that. I hope she recovers soon and gets back to inspiring a new generation of kids to fall in love with science. Praying for her speedy recovery.
bless your soul, Amit!
not a cult btw
@@DaBigBoo_ What?
What about vaccine science?
very sad, but she should be fine, i think the vaccine wasn't the issue probably the virus..? I mean we gonna jump into the vaccine stuff now ? she's sick, at least she didn't die from the sinovac vaccination like a few family friends of mine nearly 2 years ago
Hi, I’m new to this channel. I have had a couple of scares with covid within my family but I’ve never witnessed something this debilitating. I know it isn’t much, but I wanted to show that I support you all on the road to recovery. Family and friends too, it’s not easy to have something like this happen and not be able to do anything about it. I’m praying for her recovery to speed up.
I'll be honest I did not know could be this severe, but when I first caught it 2023 November, I didn't think I'd still be dealing with symptoms right now still. I am nowhere near as severe as her but my memory does not work properly and I'm dealing with rashes over the body that typical treatments does not work on it (I have in the past had them with stress or shellfish and OTC antihistamines works).
I just discovered this channel and now im heartbroken 😢 people forget how serious covid can be. Im in my 30s, generally healthy, and covid messed up my life for several months. Even 6 months later i still get exhausted way more easily and my lungs dont feel right. Nothing like dianna is going through but its happeneing more often than people realize, even to perfectly healthy people. Really to find someone who can make learning fun and inspire curiosity across ages is so wonderful. Humanity needs more of diana. Really wishing her all the best.
My brother had ME/CFS as a teenager 22 years ago and lost about a year of his life. But he bounced back incredibly well. He went on to get a PhD, run several marathons, compete in international mountain biking competitions and build a very successful career. And he's still going from strength to strength. So fingers crossed Dianna makes a full recovery.
Burnout
@@santeenl ME/CFS has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with burnout. ME/CFS is a physical disease; burnout is a psychological response.
Very happy for your brother, that's amazing. Unfortunately a recovery like that is incredibly rare for ME, it's very few percentages who gets lucky, fortunately your brother did. Crossing fingers for Diana that her condition stabilizes and she feels better
I don't think luck has anything to do with it. Everyone has a different situation. Some people having eating disorders on top of it, some have incredible stress from their financial situation, others are in a bad marriage etc. @@Tennababy
@@Tennababy I actually never realized that. I thought you were mistaken, but after some reading, it seems like the best current estimates are that less than 10% of cases end in full recovery. I never quite appreciated how lucky my brother was.
I was diagnosed with CFS 36 years ago back when most people still thought it was all in your head. I hope that with advances since then Dianna can get on the road to recovery. If anyone on her “team” reads this please make sure her mental health is attended to as much as her physical health. This impact of this disease is lifelong and I developed Major Depressive Disorder that was undiagnosed for years and there is some overlap in the symptoms.
I’m wishing the best for Dianna and we are all here to support her.
I also have CFS, diagnosed just 3 years ago.... but it was undiagnosed for several years before that. I tried to struggle on as normal but eventually had a massive mental breakdown. I would love to know any advice you might have on how to live and have a good life with CFS/ME.
@@Decrepit_biker ME/CFS here too. Look up pacing. Can’t type more right now
@@Decrepit_biker I don’t want to discourage you, but I don’t want sugar coat it either. it was a very long, very slow process of incremental improvement over many years. I had previously been a long distance runner among other things and I could no longer do a lot of the things I used to do. It was a hard adjustment but I had to kind of redefine who I was. It might be a trite saying about when one door closes another door opens but it can be true as long as you are looking for those new doors and not dwelling on those closed doors (which I struggled with for many years). Just remember that it will get better even though it might be hard to recognize the improvements in the moment. Also remember to cut yourself some slack and realize that you are doing your best and your best will keep improving over time.
Insurance dictated doctors just blame the patients. It’s adding insult to injury!
Thank you for sharing your experience. You're so important.
I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and central sensitization syndrome in 2012. I had been sick with what I thought was a bad cold a few months earlier. The first few years were very difficult and I could barely function. But slowly over time my symptoms have improved to the point that (most of the time) I can function pretty normally. I still get flare ups from time to time but they come and go. I’m really wishing for the best for you. I’ve been there and I know it’s hard, but there is always a chance your condition will improve. I sincerely hope that it does.
In all my 60 years of loving physics there have been few who could explain concepts like Dianna can. Here's hoping for a complete recovery -- the world needs people like you.
Please bring her to Germany, she has not to pay a penny for her medical treatment here, even she is not German.
It is so sad to know a country like the USA let their people die, just because it is too "expensive" to help them. F.... the US.
Come to the paradise of the world, come to Germany where healthcare is FREE!!!!!! For everyone, even US citizens.
A little over the top don't you think 🤣

Fellow ME/CFS sufferer here. Thank you all for this honest depiction of the debilitation and suffering it can cause.
I'm still a moderate case but my condition has consistently been worsening over time.
It feels so hopeless, like you're withering away and the world slowly vanishes from view.
It's frightening!
A wish for some relief for Dianna and all the other people tackling ME and/or long covid
Hope you find treatments that work well for you.😃
man i wish i could figure a way to help her . I'm almost thinking a complete blood tranfussion would help
Hope you also get better soon! 🥺
Please look into stem cell treatment. It is truly a miracle of modern science. Even though it is restriced in north america you can go to Panama or a south american country to get it, where they have medical freedom. As well look into NAD iv therapy. You can get that in any major city in the world.
@@budspencer2658 I made up a colloidal copper solution, not to be confused with silver, .. and wiped a dab on the back of my neck brain stem area on the skin, when I got severe covid headches.. which seems to happen to the cns brain stem junction.. and it was a miraculous.. I also had a ml or two by mouth.. but from a patent I have just seen, it appears that the copper facilitates stem cells into the area of apllication etc to repair !!.. to note, high zinc doses will reduce copper in the body, and needs to be taken at different time of day so not to compete... copper deficiency is majorly implicated in brain stroke and heart attack risk.
Hoping the see this and try it.. other than the other medication Ivermectin whihc is proven effcacious if taken early in illness.
Stumbled across the channel today from a short of a glass bottle. I wish Diana the best and that her health improves.
SAME here..,same video ..praying for her quick recovery
Same, probably the coldest wet blanket I ever got. Get well soon, Dianna.
Prayed for you for healing, Diana. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
I met Dianna briefly at Vidcon in 2019. The idea of such a fun, energetic person having to endure all this is truly heartbreaking. Thank you so much for taking care of her.
Hang in there.
I really miss you Diana,may God grant you healing,I wish you a speedy recovery, you are Loved.
@@jiritpishing I wonder if Diana believes in God. Could be a very interesting video.

I have suffered from ME and fatigue for years, and last November my recovery had been so great that the diagnosis was retracted. I hope the same will happen for you. Get well, Physicsgirl. It is great to see that you are in the care of people who love you very much.
That’s so great you’ve recovered ❤ do many doctors in Norway believe in ME/CFS?
@@nickc3657 why "believe" in ...?
can you eloberate?
@@MatureFister a lot of doctors in the US/UK don’t acknowledge it as a real disease or diagnosis. 30-50% according to a meta-analysis of surveys done in the U.K. :/
Whoa!!! Very generous of you sir.
@@nickc3657 yes and no. There has been a lot of media coverage of ME/CFS lately. But it has very low status and many doctors refuse to refer patients for evaluation.
I was never a viewer of this channel, just randomly stumbled upon a short with a lot of really lovely comments. this situation is breaking my heart. dianna seems like such a vibrant, intelligent, and kind person. I really hope that something good happens soon. I see a lot of people hoping for a miraculous breakthrough, and I can't deny that it would be great. however, she needs to take her time. great things can't happen overnight and hopefully this will take a turn for the better soon. I hope her husband, family, and friends are doing well too. since I help take care of my mom I know it can be really scary. but you guys are truly amazing for holding on and helping out and telling about your day. I bet she appreciates that all more than you know.
I still check twice a week hoping to see a new video to hear she has recovered. This is not how Physics Girl ends.
😢
Diana,
Not were you part of the reason why I decided to pursue physics in senior year of high school, but she was also one of the first people to show me that a physics degree can be extended beyond just the field of physics. She showed me that learning is fun and exciting and can always be applied to any aspect of your life. Diana, in my books you're one of the best science communicators.
As of today, 9 years since I first decided to study physics, and a year a half since I completed my BS in Applied Physics for Computational Physics, I'm working as both a software developer and analyst for PV Systems. I will be helping you and your husband.
Diana's Husband, mother, friends and family,
I cannot imagine the pain you're all going through. Thank you so much for providing continuous updates and support.
Diana is one of the reasons why I decided to pursue a path in the sciences. She's such a big inspiration for all of us and I hope she knows it.
We're all praying and hoping for her full recovery. ❤️
Well, rest assured that when she does end up recovering fully, it will be, in no small part, due to science.
@@LiftoffLumberjack Thanks! I was going to say the same thing.
Same with me. I start tomorrow back to school for physics
I just found out about Dianna and I hope she feels better. I have chronic fatigue as a result of my chronic illness so I know how rough it can be
Those wondering, she just recently posted on her IG
She dressed as the Wicked Witch that was crushed by the house 😂🤣😂
She's recovering
thank you
I had no idea you were sick, Dianna. This awful disease has affected too many of us in so many different ways. For me, it took a month & a half in a coma and the donation of another human's lungs. I hope you read this soon, and I look forward to seeing more videos from you when you get better, because you're going to get better.
I'm so sorry to hear that, how well are you now?
thanks for sharing. Recovery is possible, and you're living proof.
I think patreon takes less of a cut fyi
@York Hunt dude, shut up. This is not the place for that conversation.
@York Hunt That makes no sense
M.E/CFS is horrible and so difficult to explain to others what it’s like to have. Back in 2014, it forced me out of University just weeks after starting. Watching this brought back some not so happy memories for me. The road to recovery is long, and at times it may feel like you aren’t making progress or even that you’re getting worse, but things do get better eventually!
Dianna, it sounds as though you have the most amazing support bubble around you and with their help you’ve absolutely got this. Take things easy and you will get there!
Sending my best wishes to everyone there ❤
Ollie, thank you for sharing. I too have ME/CFS and agree it's difficult to get across to others that it's not "just feeling tired" but far deeper and pervasive than that. Can I ask about your recovery, as I am genuinely interested to know how much you are capable of. I have stabilised to a moderate degree but still have limitations and bad periods, 3 odd years after diagnosis and almost 9 years after first becoming ill.
I get fatigue due to colitis, and it's mild compared to chronic fatigue. But it's bad enough, so I can only imagine how debilitating and miserable it must be with a worse form of it.
My brother suffers from it as well, started 1.5 years ago. Anything that you can think of that you wish you had known early on? Are there specific things that helped you to get better?
@@thorwaldjohanson2526 for me it was learning to be kinder to myself. I spent a lot of energy I didn't have beating myself up for what I felt were my failures and inadequacies, which I might not have done if I had had some other disease or condition. I can now do some things I enjoy, though I have to accept that there are quite severe limits as compared to before. I used to enjoy hillwalking and hiking, now a walk of a mile or so on my very best days is all I can manage. I try to savour those moments as best as I can. I also had to give up working as I didn't have the energy to do it. I now accept that I probably won't work again, but can use what energy and the freedom of time I have to make the most of my good days.
Ollie, thanks for sharing. How long did it take you to fully recover?
Thinking of you Dianna. I’m a lot older than you, but when I was a teenager I got glandular fever. Everyone else got over it in a couple of weeks, but it made me very ill for 4 years. It was awful, but I did get better, it just took a lot of time. Hang on in there!
glad you pulled through! i just hope she can do the same
I saw a Physics Girl Short...and Immediately hoped that she was better...coming back here, I see that she's not yet. I'm still hopeful that she'll get better, I miss her content. I wish I knew her better cuz it feels shallow just bein like "I Miss her content"...Get well soon Dianna!
She's r.i.p
It’s been heartbreaking to watch Dianna go through this, not only because she’s such an incredible ambassador for physics and science who has inspired more people of all ages than most science communicators could dream of, but she’s clearly so universally loved by fans and fellow creators (which is rare!)
I’ve got long COVID patients affected in different ways and it’s so frustrating and disappointing that we have so little to offer. Right now. Let’s hope that changes. Thank you Dianna’s Mom, Kyle, Levi, Simone. Get well soon Physics Girl ❤
I think it wouldn't be such a bad idea to do a video on your channel on long COVID / CFS ME.... Because it's such a debilitating disease, yet has such a little support... It's insane. Maybe think about it. Thx
In your country, is research being done on regular saline IVs? I heard that for many patients these help a lot, but here in the Netherlands they are apparently not allowed because they are against protocol.
@@djVania08 the most insane thing is CFE/ME being literally ignored for the past 20 years, and patients ridiculed. Given that is very likely it is EBV related I wonder if an episode with actual researchers on this topic would make sense.
how many of long covid patients are vaccinated vs. unvaccinated?
@@allylilith5605 That is the actual question. Lets call the elefant in the room.
Hang in there Dianna, you've changed so many lives. Thank you so much for all you've done!! ♥♥♥

I have ME/CFS. This is severe. It’s horrible. Thank god she’s got help. I had to wait for carers to even get a drink 😭 only 10’years later am I better but not “well”.
Just discovered this channel. Sending positive thoughts. You’ve got this!!!!
Dianna is one of the reasons I applied to MIT in 2014, and when I was miraculously accepted she responded to an email of mine regarding fears of moving a long way from home. 8 years later, I can link my incredible place in life to your inspiration all those years ago. My heart is breaking for your friends and family seeing you suffer, yet full seeing how much love and support surrounds you.
This breaks my heart. We need more people in the world like Dianna. I hope this donation can make a small difference.
we need more people in the world like you too, thank you kind stranger
That's not small
@@sibayanmitra7922 Right?!? I wouldn’t financially recover if I sent 5$

I am a high school science teacher. I use Dianna's work all the time to support my lectures. Let her know that she's still influencing young science minds and promoting physics, even when she's not promoting physics. She makes my job so much easier because she teaches the material so well.
Thank you for being a great friend to physics girl and updating all of her supporters. I think most of us didn't know how seriously bad her long covid had become. Get well soon Dianna. Her first video back will be epic! I can't wait!!! I hope she's looking forward to getting back to work as much as her audience is looking forward to her return. Meanwhile, happy physics-ing.
Another High School science teacher here. Your videos are a regular support for my class. You can do it!!
@@db88uke Not a teacher here, but just a reminder that teachers like you and her can completely change a young person's life with your passion for the subject. Thank you for actually caring.
@@nobody.of.importance : I know what you mean. I grew up reading about physics and astronomy and other sciences as a kid and always loved the science of it all. One of the best teachers I ever had was my year 1 chemistry teacher in high school. Next to geology, chemistry is one of the most boring subjects to talk about, but this guy with his youthful charisma made the subject and the classroom fun. I still think about those days sometimes.
@@spacelinxwait, what? The art of making stuff go boom is boring? Someone forgot to tell us in high school, I guess.
Seriously, I don't think there are boring subjects. Even geology can be very interesting. You just need good teachers.

Get well soon, Dianna. You can do this!
Ive followed dianna aka physics girl since i was in high school (around 2013/4 is when i would have been in sophomore/junior year). She was one of my early gateways into educational youtube. to me, youtube would not be the same without her channel. Shes a strong woman and I'm sure with the support of her friends and family, she can get though this. I hope she knows shes touched countless lives. helped millions. And spread the joy of learning and physics to the world
A few tears shed here. Strong friends, a strong mind and a loving husband will hopefully get her through xx
My fingers are crossed because Long COVID seems to improve slowly but ME/CFS does not. I am in tears no one should have to deal with this.
This is so sad I am at a loss for words.
Why didn't she get vaccinated??
Get well soon Dianna. I have watched a few of your shorts and that one video in collaboration with Veritasium on UV rays, and you genuinely seemed like a very cheerful person! I hope you recover fast, and we get to see more of your cheerfulness again!
To Simone, Levi, Kyle and Dianna's mum, words cannot properly convey my thanks for you making the effort to film, produce, edit this update when I can imagine that all any of you want is for a day when Dianna is well again. Thank you for keeping us updated and thank you for hanging in there and continuing to stand by Dianna despite the current circumstances. I don't have much to give but Dianna's is a cause worth giving whatever someone is able to spare.
(Levi here) Thank you, honestly all this online support has just been more than at least I ever expected. I don't really get to see her much, but I wish everyone could know just how much all of this means to her and her family.
When the montage started, I honestly thought that Dianna had passed away. I'm so glad that she didn't. Simone it was so nice of you to do this, and I'm really impressed you kept it together through the whole thing.
I thought so too! Well said.
Yes that wasn't funny. I thought so too.
Me too. Covid is no joke.
We're often referred to millions missing, once you get me/CFS you disappear from the world, because you can't interact with it anymore.
I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Ditto; speedy recovery physics girl!
im not a casual watcher and only seen a few of your videos a long time ago back in highschool. just from those videos i thought you had an amazing personality, vibe, and youre very well educated about what you post. i found the other update video in my recommended and i was disturbed. i never thought something this scary and serious could happen but, im wishing you a great recovery physicsgirl. keep fighting
Happy Holidays Diana, Simone, Kyle, et al! We still think of you. We still love you. ❤🎄✨
10 years living with ME/CFS . It has stabilized at a point I can function, not 100% normally but I work, go to the beach, and have fun. I hope Dianna improves soon. She only needs time to recover, patience and love.
Ivermectin
@@nonyabeezwax8693 it's funny that people like you will call covid a flu and that the vaccine is poison but once the virus actually gets serious then your solution is self-administering with ivermectin.
we have really gotten to a disappointing level of brain rot
What did you use to recover?
@@nonyabeezwax8693 It would be interesting to see how she responds. I have had CFS/ME for over 15 years and used Ivermectin during Covid. I never contracted Covid that I am aware of, was not immunised and none of my friends and family who did the same seem to have got Covid either. That said, I don't think Ivermectin did anything for my CFS/ME but then my underlying cause of this was not Covid.
My personal take on ME/CFS having had it and met so many with it, is it seems to be a symptom of a great trauma to the body. Usually a bad viral infection but it can also come from chronic stress, medical operations that have gone wrong and other causes.
@@NZdiagnostics I'm sure if you had worms though, you are all clear now.
This was a tweet from her on July 10th: "Today marks one year since I got COVID. I’m finally starting to see tiny bits of progress in my recovery, which I feel cautiously optimistic about.
But today I mostly feel a profound grief, missing the life I had a year ago. "
Now?
She seems to be regularly posting on Twitter
Lol she got the clotshot
@@talananiyiyaya8912 you don't need to bring your conspiracy theories into this.
@@udpsocket what do you mean
When Physics Girl popped up in my recommended videos, I came over to see if she was back. 😢 Unfortunately, that was not the case. I'm still thinking and praying,in hopes that she recovers soon.
Hey Diana, I haven't been subscribed for long but I have been watching your videos. Thank you so much for your contributions to science and educating people in fun ways. I truly hope you have a speedy recovery.
This is the second video of physics girl I have seen. I have severe CFS/ ME and fibromyalgia. I live in a dark, quiet, scent free room, too. I have been as severely ill as physics girl. I want you to know that even in severe brain fog, thoughts of you, and all her loved ones, and random memories will be giving her quality of life. You don't have to be with her in person to help. She knows that you are still with her, loving her, supporting her, there for her even if not in the same building. You are still making a huge difference, and helping give her strength through this.
Being completely without strength, and totally helpless is extremely scary. But, strangely, the longer it continues, it gets easier as you adapt. It becomes the new normal. As long as you know you have enough care to survive. Recovery from that level of severity will take a very long time. I lost nearly all my friends, etc. etc. Physics girl is extremely fortunate to have around the clock care, love, medical attention, and friends as troopers guarding her at the perimeter of her world. Make it clear you will always be there for her as her friend, whether she is functional, or not! After all, we are human beings, not human doings. 💗
Unvaccinated?
@@frankrizzo7454 you can have chronic fatigue syndrome completely unrelated from covid. dont be that person....
@Frank Rizzo CFS/ ME is most commonly triggered by a virus. I got mine as a kid after mumps, before the mumps vaccination existed! Also before there was such a diagnosis as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ M.E. I was diagnosed retrospectively. I have only been (mostly) bed-bound for the last 7 years, though, and in a dark room (mostly) for 3 years.
Vaccinations boost the immune response to attack viruses, so a person can still catch the virus, although the symptoms less severe because the immune system is prepared to deal with it from.the vaccination. Vaccinations definitely reduce the risk of Acute Covid, Long Covid and CFS/ ME, but with any presence of the virus, it is possible. Two of my support workers were fully vaccinated, had other conditions, and developed Long Covid.. So yes, it is possible to get Long Covid ME/CFS when fully vaccinatioated, but by being fully vaccinated the chances of getting are much lower. I.hope that made sense, because I can't write more now.
@@daniellamcgee4251 gurl go see a specialist and get some help
What terrible quality of life you must have living in a dark room for three WHOLE years!
Nobody should live life this way and you need all the support you can get to help yourself.
Please get specialist therapy too bc fibromyalgia has a huge psychological side that is likely amplifying your suffering and distress
I wish you well and good health in the future.
@@animenome308 I don’t think they’re living in a dark room by choice, and it’s probably safe to assume that they’ve already seen specialists. ME/CFS is under-researched, and it’s unfortunately not as easy as “seeing a specialist” to get it cured in the same way that you’d take antibiotics for an infection.
Simone, this was very... you. Many people clearly hold you and Dianna in high regard, and I know we'll do everything we can to help.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ why man
False. It's clearly not the disproven, 'Cavid'. Someone seriously hurt her. Stop covering it up.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ This seems very inappropriate. You're telling someone who is suffering to repent or perish. That's a threat, not a calling.
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist2 Reported, and you should feel ashamed to invoke the name of Jesus Christ. I am in no way religious but this is not good Christian behavior.
Think about your cruel sinful behavior and repent.
For all windering and returning she is still alive. And Kyle is posting to her X account aka twitter. Last post was October 30th
I've just seen a few videos of her and I'm loving this lady!!!
I'm genuinely heartbroken over this and I hope she gets better soon. -A new fan
Absolutely heartbreaking. As someone who has had ME/CFS for over 10 years now, I wish her good days and many spoons. Please don't lose hope, there are many recovery stories. Personally, I was really sick for some years, however I´m now a full time student and part time employee. That's something I never thought would happen when I was bedridden in a dark room, but it is possible. Wish you many spoons, Dianna, and please hang on to hope tightly.
Yes super true HOPE hope hope that’s everything

@@texgale2466 Hey Tex, how do you explain people getting long covid from March 2020 onwards before the vaccine? Did the vaccine go back in time to make people ill. Did the vaccine create a wormhole? Please help us understand so we can all learn from you.
Please get well soon Dianna! This breaks my heart seeing such a wonderful human-being go through something that feels like all of this shouldn't happen to someone as wonderful as you! Hang in there! Everyone here is rooting for you and for your recovery!

It shouldn't be happening to anyone... as everyone is wonderful in their own ways... for someone... but i see you meant good with that comment.

My step-daughter has long covid and it seems to have triggered a latent thyroid problem which only made matters worse. Even then, she is nowhere in as bad a shape as Dianna. My heart goes out to her husband and wish him the strength he needs to get through this. He is one in a million.
I have totally missed out on this lady and her videos!
A touching and very nice video by her friend, this! I wish and hope that Diana recovers and can get back to posting more videos, if that's something she'd like to do, but more importantly, that she recovers for her own sake.
Very well done by her friends and family, to help her out like this. ❤
We need passionate people like Dianna for the advancement of physics. Her passion can inspire and motivate others to contribute to the field. Sending love & positive energy for a quick recovery!
You are wonderful. We need ppl like to too - thank you for your generosity.
Man, I just found this channel, I came here to learn about science not to feel sad. I hope she recovers. Whether it be quickly or not doesn’t matter, what matters is that she gets better. I hope more positive news is told in the future. To anyone who is suffering or has had someone else suffer, stay strong. I believe in you and your friend, family, or lover. We are all people in a small world in a small part of the universe and we have to keep close to each other if we’re gonna make it. I love you all. Stay safe and stay healthy.
Just checking in on physics girl. It's been 9 months since the last update. I'm just curious if she is making any progress. We miss her and we all hope she gets well soon. We love Physics Girl!! You are an amazing person and you brought a lot of joy and amazement to all of our lives.
After dropping out of high school and spending ten years of my life working in restaurants, I graduated with a BS in electrical engineering in 2020. When school was tough and I was doubting myself, Simone and Diana's videos helped me stay positive and passionate. They contributed to my new life. I'm happy to contribute to theirs.

Checking back in NOV 2023 , we're still hoping Dianna's recovery is going forward and will recover as much as she can. She made legacy of fans loving to learn science and getting to tag alone with her.
Please get better soon Physics Girl!
To Simone and Levi: thank you for reminding all of us what true friends do. She is fortunate to have you both. To Kyle and Diana’s mom: keep the faith. “Full-time-caregiver” doesn’t begin to explain what a grueling, tough job it is to take care of someone with a debilitating condition. Even some family members are not up to the task. You are both angels. To Diana: I hope you are able to read all of the supportive comments here someday soon. Please don’t give up! You illuminate darkness in more ways than one. You can do this. I wish you nothing but the best.
(Levi here), thanks we appreciate all the support so much. It's overwhelming but so so helpful during this time.
Ditto.
I have ME/ CFS, and there is a lot of misinformation about it. ME/ CFS isn't getting tired, as in being sleepy like narcolepsy. It's crippling muscle weakness akin to MG/ MS etc., in which they baseline reduces. However, it's more than just muscle fatigue. I've had it for 9+ years. At my worst, I was bedridden for a whole year, unable to tolerate any stimuli; light, sound, touch, temperature, etc. I was left in a cold (constantly 16 degrees Celsius which resulted in frost nip, but I couldn't sweat due to anhidrosis, so I had no choice), dark room, and and earplugs constantly, which resulted in blind spots, and constant tinnitus/ muscle ear syndrome/ phantom sounds. I couldn't talk. I couldn't shower, as every water droplet felt more painful than a tattoo gun (coming from someone who is covered in tattoos). I developed allergies to everything, I did not have allergies to prior. I could not even use my phone, or watch tv to waste time, nor sleep as I had sever insomnia. I just laid, slowly losing my ability to think as my imagination disabled and would send electric shocks down my CNS, and brain cramps if I did. It's hard with ADHD to force yourself not to move. It's not like I didn't want to move, I was restless, and every time I tried, I'd get severe air hunger, and PEM which was a severely crippling electric shock that went down my CNS into my wings, disabling me for moving for hours.
However, I am mostly recovered (just cannot do extreme exercise everyday without rest), at least enough to live semi-normal due to a drug LDN (0.13mg is my sweet spot), which seemed to have neural anti-inflammatory effect to my HPA-Axis dysfunction (pseudo Cushing's, constant fight or flight).
I literally just found Dianna's channel, but she seems really great, and i hope she bounces back better than ever 🙏
I’m in absolute disbelief still….. Diana brings (yes still) so much joy to my life, i still can’t process the anger, the worry and sadness I feel for her and for Kyle. It’s unreal. F’ing unreal.
Love you Simone and thank you so much for doing this, because I felt the same about you when you had your surgery.
Same… ❤
I wonder if she was vaccinated ? Does anyone know ? Very sad story. I received an email about this from Brave Wilderness Show.
I am so, so sorry. The world desperately needs strong, intelligent, well-educated, capable women like Dianna. She's a bright, shining light in a community, where she has educated an immeasurable number of individuals on subjects they otherwise would have likely overlooked. I hope that her recovery is swift, and I hope that her and Kyle are able to spend many happy, healthy decades together. We'll all be thinking good thoughts for you. Be well, Dianna.
I wish her all the best, a quick recovery and a fabulous come back ❤
Thanks for stand by her.
Thinking about Physics Girl. Would welcome another update.
They post monthly updates on twitter
This is heartbreaking. We're all definitely rooting for her.
Rooting in the Australian way

As someone who occasionally watched her videos, I did not think this would affect me so much. I am completely sobbing. Diana just seems so smart and innocent and it's really sad to see her go through something like this. I hope she recovers.
What you said.
I think she is a good person but it doesn't seem that smart to take an experimental mrna vax. Long Covid? I don't think so.
Good stuff on the internet has to be encouraged.. I always finished PG vids feeling better.
Same. I've watched her videos here and there over the years, they were always good. What's she's going through is so incredibly sad. I hope she makes a miraculous recovery.
@@cassiescornerreviews6884 I hope they at least find some treatment that helps soon. It's so scary. 😥
Stay strong SUPER girl! I enjoy your previous posts and often come back on them to refresh my memory of your great content. Wishing you strength and tons of stamina to battle your ailment!
Goodness, this breaks my heart. Dianna is such a vibrant and wonderful woman. All of my wishes are with her and her family. ❤
This is so heartbreaking... To see such a wonderful person who we are used to see full of life and curiosity in this condition is just... heartbreaking. I don't think there's any other word to describe this.
I've always struggled with physics in High School and back then I thought that Physics was my mental limit, something I just couldn't understand, so I just gave up on it, getting bad grades because it seemed like an impenetrable wall.
Then, at around 30 year old, when I started watching Dianna's channel, I realized that I'm actually capable of understanding Physics and I learned a lot, way more than I would have ever thought I could. Dianna helped me realize that that limit was just something the adolescent me created without a reason, and she also made me realize that I enjoy listening to and learning Physics. Every time I watched a video, I felt the need to talk about what I've learned with everyone.
So, I am really grateful to her, and knowing that she's in this state is just extremely sad.
I really hope that she gets well soon, so that she can go back to what she clearly loved doing.
You can feel straight in your soul by watching her videos how much she enjoys sharing her knowledge through her curiosity, how much she feels alive and happy when she makes a video. Her curiosity is simply contagious, which is an incredible quality, and a rare one, too.
I can't wait to see her back with a new video once this is all over and in the past.
Her light will overcome this too!
I agree I have long covid as well but nothing like this.

How i came across her channel, amazing video.
Hey, just jumping in to say that my close friend has been through something very similar and she was in bed for almost 3 years, also just struggling to exist, in the dark, not moving, barely making a sound. She is coming out of it now doing very well. Every month brings more activity and happiness. She can even go hiking now! She feels well and is organizing her new life on her terms. It's possible! Fingers crossed for Diana's recovery. Even if it doesn't come fast, don't lose hope!
What on Earth is keeping people in bed for 3 years? Like what is the actual condition? And then you jsut recover after 3 years and can hike again? Makes no sense???
I'm so glad your friend is doing well now. Sounds like such an awful thing to do through.
@@jackmace6531 CFS is Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. You don't have the energy to things, not just "I'm tired and need a day off or to be lazy" but an inability to move/function. Lots of other symptoms can accompany CFS, especially with Long Covid, like POTS where your heart rate skyrockets and your blood pressure plummets when you stand/walk/do activities. Doing some research on what the possible side effects of Covid and looking at Long Covid rates may giver you a better idea of what is going on and why people are stuck in bed. Covid isn't the only way stuff like CFS occurs, it's just a very clear set of people with defined symptoms. Sometimes mental health can also play a big role in symptoms. The brain is a miraculous thing as is modern pharmacology, which allows people to sometimes get better with time. There is a lot that is misunderstood about "invisible" disabilities and chronic illnesses, but a quick google of some of these things will probably give you more information than I ever could. Hope this clears things up.
@@yorkhunt8014 I'm very curious too. Her friend said she had long Covid. But are there cases of people getting the vaccine and having the same issues??

@rundown132 she got better at managing herself with afternoon sleeps etc, she can go out now but there are times where she can be on that knife edge of being bed bound again. It's a very hard thing to manage, and it's taken many years for her to get to this unfortunately. As far as I'm aware there's no cure (i believe the lightning process does not cure it) and she will always be living with it in some capacity. I'm extremely hopeful for Dianne, it may take a few years though :(
