Oof, as a chronically ill person, I feel this! I also do not trust a single soul with my body, which is a sad way to live...with zero trust for anybody (including family and close friends). But, I've seen that everyone has moved on, so I have to stay isolated to protect myself. And I miss people, but I also am afraid of people and being in public. Partly due to COVID and the eugenics happening right now, but I also really fear a mass shooting. The prevalence of such events has definitely changed my brain. I also feel like the ongoing pandemic has completely changed me as a person. I don't relate to many friends and family members anymore due to my changing belief systems and lifestyle. My social life is greatly diminished (pretty much non-existent as well).
Thank you for sharing these thoughts - it helps me to not feel so alone, and I hope my sharing this makes you feel less alone!
I don’t know if I have ever felt so seen and so validated. Thank you, Lachrista. Sending you lots of love & healing in these dark, dark times.

Thank you for reading and sharing your experience, Camille.
Is it scary that fears of things like this happening are relatively warranted. Sending you so much love. You are not alone 🖤
Sending you love back, Nisha! Thank you ❤️🙏🏻
Yes! It's disheartening to know others feel the same way as I do, but it's also comforting. Thanks love ❤️
