Sorry, I don’t make the rules.

I’ve been half-seriously debating just going out and trying to get infected while I’m still relatively healthy so I’ve got a better chance of surviving with minimal long term effects but with my luck I’d probably end up just dying anyway.
my bigger fear is getting it (where i work it may be inevitable) and being absolutely crippled and left hung out to dry. barely able to get up, organs wrecked, can’t do my intensely physical job anymore and let go. no “covid fund” for anybody, just left without insurance and unable to work on a 10 year SSI backlog with each day my 12 guage looking friendlier. fuck. i hate america.
Lol :this-is-fine:
I got it in the spring and was sick for two weeks, but felt fine physically afterwards. The lasting part of it for me was mental. I had cognitive impairment, inability to focus, fatigue, mood swings, etc. for almost six weeks afterwards, like I was recovering from a concussion. My depression has been acutely worse over the last six months, and while I know that’s not exactly unique in this day and age, I can’t help but wonder if lasting neurological effects are a factor.
It was recently discovered that people who have had covid are at a higher risk of developing a psychiatric disorder. Hope you feel better soon comrade. :heart-sickle:
But the question is how many times?
