I think tumblr is better at talking about the severity of Covid than a lot of platforms, but the posts I see on here do a terrible job at highlighting that you can do everything right and *still get it*. And I don't say that to be a pessimist, but because it can be incredibly invalidating for people who have been masking, up-to-date on boosters, etc. and got Covid bc even though we did everything we could, it still feels like our fault that we had it. So if that describes your experiences with Covid I just wanna say I see you, I feel you, and you are not alone

#while the physical parts of Covid sucked it destroyed my mental health worse than all of it #in part bc of that rhetoric #it left me with the sentiment that I was suffering because it was my fault #even tho I still wear masks everywhere I go and got the booster last month #and yeah you could say that a post telling you to do these things doesn't apply to you if you already are #it still has that underlying stigmatization that Covid is at the blame of the person who contracts it #tracking tag #rambling #current events
