[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course she can. It was a scary and uncertain time. How one reacts to that is personal.

It sounds like you don't agree with what she is saying so you are dismissing her experience. [/quote]

If she has PTSD from the risk of death from a pandemic, sure. But PTSD from having to wear a mask grocery shopping?  [/quote]

This. I was so scared during covid because my husband was an essential worker and I was high risk. My parents could not live alone (need caregivers) and so could not isolate and got covid. It was a horrible stressful year. I was so envious of my friends who could work from home, whose family members could work from home, and whose parents could self isolate. I could not tolerate their whining about having to stay home in their country house with a pool while my husband, kids, parents and I were dealing with the constant threat of sickness and death. THAT was stressful. Having to wear a mask in a grocery store for a year? Get the f over it.[/quote]
