Long COVID: Accepting my new normal

You are not alone, I too have become angry, frustrated, alienated, and lonely in the virtual world I live in. No drugs work for me, my only drug is sleep. I wake up to the loudest ringing in my ears, leaving me with such a debilitating feeling from the moment I wake up, that it takes me nearly 4 hours, just to feel like I can open my door And get my dog out for a quick walk. In all fairness, I wasn’t much fun before Covid! (Levity joke) but yes, my friends are all gone, and sadly my family does not want to deal with this at all. We can own our anger, I just don’t allow it to consume me; as it is too draining, and it only triggers a higher frequency of more intense relapses. We are all in a place where we are completely understood. That aspect of loneliness doesn’t have to be there anymore. we all understand, and we WILL get through it!!!

I was tons of fun. (Levity joke)

I agree. It is wasted energy, but sometimes that’s how it goes.
I have better days, and worse days for handling the frustration.

Yes, this is a good place to come to vent, and feel understood.
I do wonder if we will get through this......
I truly hope so.
