I was unemployed, isolated, and anosmic-- then covid hit and I was like, “hey everyone, welcome to the club! Yes, it does suck but at least now there’s people to empathize with.”
Me too. Was unemployed for 2.5 years and completely broke. My own sister bullied me about that to no end on a daily basis. Lost almost all of my hair in less than six months (didn’t even hit 30 with hair in my head and no, my parents nor grandparents never went bald). Was dumped and heartbroken and lost my only and best friend in the world - my dog.
But somehow the COVID thing brought inner peace, a stable job, and pretty much could turn my life upside down.

Yeah I felt the same.
Also afterwards it’s been rather easy to ask people to imagine if lock down had lasted for five years instead, and how they would feel about it.
