I knew it would happen one of these days - I am in America. It is kicking my ass, I was in bed from 11pm to 5pm today. I feel like garbage.

EDIT: Thank you all for the well wishes. I am feeling a little better today after sleeping for essentially a day and a half out in two days. Still very delirious and sick, though.

    It’s completely ludicrous that we just have to “live” with covid. Just accept you’ll get sick every few months for the rest of your life apparently.

    I shudder to think if I might have it any time I feel tired or a bit sick, I dare not even test anymore. Life is back to normal except you still catch and transmit covid.

    Take care of yourself

    I’m sorry to hear that comrade. Were you masking and being relatively cautious?

    Just do as little as possible. That is the only thing you can do at this point to keep your risk of developing long covid low. And then, try not to get covid again.

    Damn it. I am going to a restaurant for the first time in over a year tomorrow… I really probably shouldn’t go… fuck.

      I was masking, but (stupidly) still operating relatively normal. I don’t think I was eligible for a booster, though, so that might be why it’s kicking my ass so badly.

      Dang it. I’m actually scared. I really hope this goes away.

        They just made the boosters available, but don’t worry about that now. Worry about rest rest rest. Covid is still killing people but if you’re vaxxed it is very unlikely to do so.

        But don’t take it lightly if you really feel like you’re having difficulty breathing, go to the hospital. People who went to the hospital actually recover better (likely because they get put on oxygen which prevents lung deterioration). Assuming you have insurance.

        You’ll be fine, comrade! Try not to think about it too much - the more you do, the worse you’ll feel. Hang kn there!

    Damn, you too? Hope you get better soon! Get as much rest as you can, drink lots of water, all that good stuff!
