Yes, well, try your best not to get too stressed out about it, and just work within your capabilities, since we know that we pay when we over-do it.
I think I can say that I did indeed get over "Long Covid", which manifested in really very much the same manner for me several decades ago as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. It lifted away "magically" on its own after about two years.
Similar to LC, it started out after what seemed like an ordinary flu, which was pretty typical back then.
I'm trying to be patient with myself this time around (about a year after first succumbing to acute Covid), and think I'm gaining some ground by just using prescribed stimulants to counteract the fatigue, which, thankfully, is really my only symptom.
But I think being "Buddhisty" is a great approach!

In reply to @sandguy ... thanks, good advice. Easy to push too hard when you have a burst of energy and then pay the price. I can't imagine having CFS back in the day when people were simply accused of malingering At least with LC there's a growing (and more and more visible) community of people to share and learn from. Good to hear you're getting some help with stimulants... the fatigue is the worst. As you suggest, it seems as if we might just outlive this thing if we hang in long enough. The symptoms do seem to improve with the passage of time for many people ... fingers crossed for all of us. (I do love this group; couldn't have made it this far with some sanity intact without Connect.)
