Loop Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Hello everyone, I just tested postive for covid felt pretty terrible yesterday was super disorentated, & pain all over. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions to help me recover, & relax well going threw this. Hopefully it wont get any worse then this, feel like I barely have the energy to type this out, or look at any bright screens. Covid kinda freaked me out a bit when I first heard about it because I grew up with autoamumine disorders and asthma. I feel about the same I did yesterday though, so I am hoping it won't get much worse then this. Perfect time to just focus on mindfully floating with pain, would love to hear any suggestions for how you personally do this more effectively, and any suggestions for just something to do to make myself feel better, like take a bath or anything. Thank you 🙏 Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Enjoy the sleepiness! I got it a while back, just rest and only eat light healthy foods like veggie soups or broths. Quote Mention ♾️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Baths and anything that is restful or enjoyable. 🙂 Wishing you a quick recovery. If you can, I would drink lemon water (with raw honey if desired), stay really well hydrated, (herbal teas are great too), take zinc, cut out or cut way back on caffeine.

Loop Posted April 6, 2022 Author Share Posted April 6, 2022 @Orb So sleepy! 😪 Good thing I bought a bunch of fruits from the store just before I got sick. @Mandy I should go grab some zinc to add to my vitamin collection I got next to my bed, raw honey and herbal tea is a good suggestion too I might I have some in the kitchen. I never really liked caffeine fortunately. I think I got everything you suggested somewhere around the house, thanks! Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh.

Orb Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 @Loop that's the best part of being sick, just sleeping all day lol. I was so sick just watching youtube and stuff for a few days. Quote Mention ♾️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted April 6, 2022 Author Share Posted April 6, 2022 @Orb Yeah it can be, although the bright lights give me too much of a headache sometimes, or even just trying to keep up with what is going on in a video can be pretty tiring. But then again I guess that might be what you mean, you get tired from watching the videos and just fall asleep 😄 Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh.

Just relax and wait for it to pass. Sleep a lot, take some medicines to diminsh the symptoms and of course drink a lot of herbal infusion. 🤗 I'm kinda glad I got it now rather then when the weather is nicer out. It would have sucked to get it in the summer! 😴😊 20 minutes ago, Serenity said: I was about to make a further joke about nothingness, but it turned very creepy. lol Oh Nothingness can be very creepy sometimes, but usually She is trying to teach you sometimes about suffering, the emptiness of there being a one who is in pain, haha! It can feel like a falling backwards into flow with something you instinctually don't want to, pain. Which can certainly feel creepy. I don't know if any of this made sense to you but it made me feel a bit better, thanks 😄 Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh.

Faith Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 @Loop Sorry you hear! You can alternate Tylenol with Ibuprofen every 6 hours for fever/body aches. Cold/flu OTC medications, vitamin C and zinc. Feel better! 💙 Quote Mention You're a thought. Do you think a thought is going to occupy 'no thought'. The 'changeless' can be realized only when the ever-changing thought-flow stops.

Loop Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) Well it was a nice having a bit of energy this morning, but back to resting again. Was doing a bit of light streaching to keep from being too stiff from all the lazin around. Seems like I am starting to slowly get better, still so sleepy 😪 Edited April 8, 2022 by Loop Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh.

MetaSage Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 If you’re already vaccinated, I assume you’ll be fine. Cold showers help me breathe better and feel my whole body; they may help you relax and rest, too. Not a doctor. Besides, I have no fucking idea. ;) Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 36 minutes ago, MetaSage said: Why caffeine? Mostly because caffeine really dehydrates you and will allow you to do activities when your body needs and is calling for rest. It also can raise blood pressure and can hurt sleep quality. When you are healthy that might be OK. In the past every time I've tried to power through a virus with caffeine I've had long lasting symptoms. With that said others might deal with caffeine better.

Loop Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 @MetaSage That vacine made me feel pretty weird haha, yeah I am sure I'll be fine. Cold showers can be nice sometimes, thanks 🌨 Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 Breathing symptoms are a bit worse then it has been, but all the other symptoms are getting better it seems. Went for a walk outside and it was nice, needed that fresh air. Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 ❤️Glad to hear it, I say take it easy till you're back to 100%. Quote Mention Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted April 13, 2022 Author Share Posted April 13, 2022 @Mandy Was sitting outside for awhile and then this child like fascination with the way the clouds were making shadows on the grass came over me and I just sat there for like 2 or 3 hours so wonderous about the shadows & light. Does this count as taking it easy? 😄🌞☁️ Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
