      Someone at the grocery store fucking coughed right at me as I was walking by. That was a week ago and it still really bothers me.

        im fine, thanks for asking comrade. my friend is moving away so i took the risk to hang out. we were outside wearing masks the entire time, we went on a walk. when we were almost back we went to a corner store and like 5 people came in without masks after us and now im overthinking... this is in a super lib city in california too so i was shocked.

          Dude they are out here in droves either tourists or just dumb motherfucking new age hipsters that are anti-mask. There's a frightening overlap with the crystal hippies and Q adjacent shit. (source my mom is an actual insane person).

            lmao i live in a city with problably the highest concentration of those dumbass faux hippies in southern california. they are SO stupid, i hate them all. luckily my mom is a lib with trump derangement syndrome so she loves masks.

              The new age hippie-spiritual type to Qanon to eco-fascism pipeline is real and fuckin scary.

            yeah i know i should be fine but i still get so freaked out sometimes.... i get a little claustrophobic now i guess, i already have bad anxiety lol but now this is making me go to extremes.

              It's okay to be freaked out sometimes, I know there are times for me when I'm overwhelmed when sometimes the smallest things can set me off and I used to be really hard on myself for it, which only made it worse. If you're anything like me just remember that it's okay to not be okay <3

        Same here. Later I found this article about adjustment reactions in response to crisis and I feel like it perfectly characterizes what I went through.
