the scariest part is it’d be like... okay, if i got it, i would (inshallah!!!!) survive because i am rather healthy. but the new ideas on the severe lasting side effects... that shit will be like a whole second pandemic years after this is “cured” (if it ever is)
I agree the scariest part for young people isn't dying. It's going to cause lasting damage to people that could shave 5, 10, 20 years off of a huge portion of the populations lives.
Yep. And it’s selfish I guess, but I hate that staying inside constantly is taking away my “fun younger” years AND that I could deal with lasting health issues for years to come too. Just lot of petty resentment towards older adults right now who got to live a fun life pre-covid whereas I hardly had been out on my own yet. But I try not to simmer in those thoughts
It really sucks to think that after all the sacrifices we have made we're just going to end up getting covid anyway. What a depressing thought. That sucks that this has started right when you got out on your own. It definitely has hurt some people disproportionately. However I still think we can make the most of it, even if it isn't how we imagined or wanted our lives to be right now.
I try not to complain cause people have it way worse, but yeah it really fucked up some life-changing plans I had. But you’re right. It isn’t easy but it helps to try to stay a bit positive.
My friends and I didn’t do a lot of partying during our first year of college so now we’re like, if this ever ends, we WILL party nonstop for at least a month.

Do you live near any sort of nature? Camping with one or two people has been my way of maintaining a semblance of "fun younger years"
sadly I’m away from college, so I don’t have peer-aged friends here :( i’m glad that’s working for you though!! it sounds fun
Ah damn....It'll be over one day inshallah
I hold out hope that someday it'll all be over and everyone will party for like a week straight
