I Caught The Plague!
Added 2023-02-16 22:28:18 +0000 UTCI have COVID and my everything hurts. Chapters will probably not happen this week!
Some of you may remember the Pokemon fanfic I briefly posted. I still update that occasionally, and I've finally started posting it somewhere more readable than Discord: Archive Of Our Own. You can read the story here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/44996500/chapters/113218813
Anyway, sorry for the delay everyone! I'm gonna go die now.

2023-02-19 13:23:49 +0000 UTCI will do my best, but right now the number one thing I'm struggling with thanks to the sickness is getting sleep. >.<

2023-02-17 21:53:02 +0000 UTCI slept for a full 27 hours after getting it. I came out fine but others I know had month long coughs, low stamina, couldn't speak loudly anymore, etc. Listen to Mickey Phoenix.

2023-02-17 16:46:51 +0000 UTCI've made a hobby -- a dark and necessary hobby -- of staying up to date on the latest research regarding long covid. There's not much that can be done about it once one hasn't, at this point. But there is something, something specific, that can be done to lower one's chances of having it: extensive rest following the acute phase of covid. I mentioned this because I have seen how hard you push yourself. In this particular case, you sincerely can't afford to. Even with the vaccine, somewhere in the ballpark of 10% of people with covid develop long covid -- symptoms lasting a minimum of 3 months, and frequently a year or more. And 6 months of brain fog would cost us a lot more of your writing than a month or two of you resting and convalescing. So, please, listen to your body, and make yourself rest even more than it tells you to. Future you will thank you -- as will future us.

2023-02-17 02:44:18 +0000 UTCTake extra vitamin C, D, and some zinc. Also drink extra water and take some SALT too. Get plenty of rest. I followed these steps and shrugged covid right off. I also have an insane immune system, so your results may vary. Regardless, always take care of the fundamentals first. I would be really disappointed if you died of dehydration while fighting off covid...
