Okay, so I was 19 when the pandemic started. I caught covid in March 2020, before lockdown, and never recovered. Now I can't work, can't leave the house, and I've had no friends for 3 years. So which is worse? A few months of lockdown or a lifetime of isolation?

Why don’t more people talk about what the Covid lockdowns did to young people like me? At 15 years old, I was involuntarily isolated from my friends for SIX MONTHS. I didn’t see them, I didn’t meet them. The lockdowns RUINED young people like me. An entire Generation.

@OTforLC Referred March 2021. Given a handful of telephone appointments. From July 2021 there was radio silence from them. Discharged in Feb 2022. No treatment. No discharge letter. No report. No final comparison. Just told “there’s nothing we can do”.

Help every day I'm getting sicker and sicker, and I dont know how to stop it. I spend 99% of my time lying down. It's dark and quiet, but my body still registers it as moderate stress, just because I am awake. My Body Battery scores now vs 2 months ago:
