COVID long hauler here since April 2021 & post concussion patient. Not sure if that constitutes disabled, but I sure can’t do fuck all every day except fester in a dark room and wait for night. Pls, if someone can chat w me or relate, that would lift my spirits and make living easier. Cheers.

Are you able to read, write, learn programming? Learn bioinformatics? Do cool things from your computer?

is there someone who can take you out in a wheelchair so you can see some sun?

what’s your situation like?

@courteousTiger5834. I’m sorry that you are going thru this. I have a condition that seems to be similar to long Covid.
