Coping with Corona

We all ready for this pandemic to be over. 

What does the dreaded corona feel like? 

In short, you feel like a zombie rising from the dead.  You have no energy at all, in fact I’m struggling to write this right now.  My throat hurts, I’ve lost my voice, my head hurts, my muscles ache, I’m drowning in my own mucus, my stomach hurts and I feel nauseous, along with symptoms that come and go.  I’ve even had a lot of visual disturbances.  So yeah, stay safe guys.  Honestly since my symptoms started, I have barely been able to do anything.  I feel like my life is just going on without me and I’m just stuck here without it, caught in some weird time loop.  Everyday is pretty much the same.  Nothing exciting happens.  I finally had the energy to shower today, and I know that sounds gross, but listen, I feel like I’ve been thrown off a cliff…  

I’m so sick, but I’m more sick of how I can’t see or hug my friends. I can’t go see my family for Christmas this year. Can’t do this, can’t do that.  Everything seems so, bleeeeehhhhhh. Honestly, that’s the best way I can describe it.  So, for the love of not feeling like a undead beast, wear your mask, and wear it right.
