Today is #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay.
For more than six years i suffer from this insidious disease. Some symptoms have gotten better, others worse, even others have only recently developed (looking at you gastritis).
But the world has moved on, now pretends that #COVID is over and that i as someone with #LongCOVID do not exist (i must be a "trigger").
No one ever asks, how are you doing. All the care work falls to one person, who has zero support for this burden. I have never felt so alone.
Not only on #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay, please reach out to those you know who have #LongCOVID.
Stay informed on the wide range of disease clusters that can occur.
Look out for friends with "strange" and persistent symptoms, they might have LC.
And spread this excellent PDF with known treatments for specific symptom clusters:

Hi,
I feel for you and that being said, I feel for all that lack the means to get what they need.
Despite many things, I believe that life is a gift, a wonder and that the greatest gift is to be able to be of service, to help where help is needed.
I think that our current economy fails you, but I believe in, and am looking for, a fix. Also because it is essential for our #polycrisis.
Currently I am exploring #timebank s.
