Does anyone else who is v. severe sometimes feel too sick to get better? By which I mean I can't tolerate any treatments. My lvl of functioning is so low & they all make me worse to the point that I can't remember to take my meds or electrolytes or speak to caregivers.

One of the last audiobooks I listened to before I couldn't tolerate audio input anymore was The Puzzle Solver. I was on my way from moderate to severe then and I remember thinking how grateful I was not to be as bad a Whitney... Little did I know what the next year would bring.

The outrage doesnā€™t match yā€™allā€™s actions. Youā€™re not paying attention to covid either. Youā€™re existing maskless in public and spreading infection too. Youā€™re mocking disabled people who have had to take covid seriously for the past half decade. If youā€™re pissed about this

Kids who catch Covid are more likely to be left with debilitating lingering symptoms than adults US scientists found children were left with prolonged symptoms 'in almost every organ system' after being struck down with the virus Ā«Ā MildĀ Ā» right ? dailymail.co.uk/health/articleā€¦

Has anyone tried medications that increase dopamine other than low dose #abilify and had similar or good results? Atomexatine or others? #pwme #longcovid

Have many people with severe / very severe #longcovid or #pwme tried #spravato / nasal #ketamine for depression or reducing inflammation. I hear it increases glutamate in the brain... Good or bad for our conditions? I thought we had an excess of glutamate already?

People who voted for candidates that look like them for generations have a lot of nerve telling us weā€™re voting for somebody because theyā€™re Black.

Can't get out of p e m. Depression is crushing. Don't know how to stabilize. Children can't bear more than four or five days without seeing me. 1 hr nurse visit/week, have to communicate w/ caregivers & take meds & supplements. Don't know how to cut back. Sometimes I'm scared.
