[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid turned into a hermit. Anxiety about getting COVID was high. This pandemic affected their learning and social development. We had to play catch up getting them prepared to move away to college. Even then, there were gaps. They’d never used a debit card for instance. They rarely went out and, when they did, used our credit card. The learned to drive “late.” Once they did, that helped to accelerate their growth. They caught COVID finally and felt pretty sick. In a sense, it was probably good to finally catch it and get that over with. Zoom and telehealth have saved me hours. We missed saying goodbye to a dying parent due to hospital COVID protocols. Still hard to believe that. Long COVID is a disease of inflammation, a doctor told me. I hope you feel better every day, OP. [/quote] How do teens end up with anxiety about covid? I truly don’t understand that[/quote] One read the news and when our aunt died of Covid, it galvanized into anxiety. [/quote] I’m sorry about your aunt, really I am. But please be honest- how old was she? What other health conditions?[/quote] NP here - so it wasn't my aunt. I lost a cousin - age 43, no health conditions. So go ahead please rationalize that because you know covid ONLY affects the old, the sick, and the fat right, and if anyone else worries about it they're paranoid, right?[/quote] The ignorance about who covid affected 3.5 year later is astounding. Also like the PP doesn't even care if they people had medical issues or not like their life lost didn't matter. Like what is wrong with people? Their souls are missing. For the record I lost two HEALTHY uncles in their early 60's from covid. [/quote] It's a defense mechanism - bad outcomes can only happen to the OTHER and they somehow deserve it. They're old, they're fat, they have other medical conditions. Me and my perfect family look who fit and skinny we all are, only eating organic blah blah. Honestly that's what most people did to convince themselves to urgently return to normal bc those bad outcomes, those are for OTHER people so they should stay home, we can go back to packed stadiums and restaurants and wherever we want to go.[/quote]
