if losing "identity-building years" was hard for you i have some bad news about what chronic illness does. if lost time was actually a concern to any of you you’d mask up and fight for cleaner air but nobody wants to talk about that

everyone i know in their late 20s is having an existential crisis because we skipped our mid 20s in the pandemic. relationships fast-tracked, careers faltered, we lost those core identity-building years and now we feel like 23-year-old brains in bodies approaching 30

people with long covid have every right to be loud about it bc they’re being neglected at every level. It truly is the worst and everyone seems to think it either won’t happen to them (“I’ve already had it!” ok and u can still get it) or it can’t possibly be that bad

@jzux some people’s bad time consisted of a year (if that) of no restaurants or travel while others lost their ability to walk/think/breathe so it’s not really the same, a little perspective would help ur friend group maybe

@SalvMattera my post Covid heart issues turned out to be pulmonary arterial hypertension which can only be diagnosed via cath but there were signs on cardiac MRI. glad I finally saw a cardiologist who was diagnostically aggressive or I would have died

@catjeans And many are still missing out on that. But this article equates social loss with “skipped years”, just because bad things happened doesn’t mean you weren’t living and I say that as someone who was hospitalized with heart failure at 32 due to post Covid autoimmune disease

The amount you get sick when you have small kids in the winter is literally so unbelievable I don't know how to describe it to people who don't have children. They wouldn't believe me. I wouldn't have believed me.

Hot take: People not wearing masks has nothing to do with any of their listed reasons and has everything to do with fact they stigmatized mask-wearing by equating it with 'vulnerability' and 'weakness.' Same thing happens with resistance to using mobility aids in seniors.

the thing about taylor swift is that she so perfectly encapsulates through her lyrics, the interior lives of women. It's why we all can't stop listening. We're all saying, "wait you felt that way? we were all feeling this way?" do men have someone like that?
