This made me very depressed so I wanted to share that with all of you.

Literally had a neuropsychiatrist tell me that the BrainHQ game was good to help out with memory issues in Covid cases...

I know the Internet loves to give bad unsolicited advice, but I have brain fog from MS and vitamin D has helped me a fair bit. You have to take a fairly large amount (or get an infusion). I don't know if it'll help with long COVID but since it seems to have similar neurological symptoms I thought I would share.

I heard taking extra zink supplements and hydrating enough in the post-covid recovery period is supposed to alleviate it.

Getting as close to 3 liters a day of water as I could for weeks and mental fog improved greatly.

Well that's not surprising, my brain don't work no good an app isn't gonna change that.

I have blind hope that it will improve slowly over time, or I will continue to adapt to the new normal.

Maskless pharmacist who gave me my most recent jab asked me a few questions like trying to figure out why I wanted the shot, I was like so I don't get COVID sir...

Did anything ever come of that Japanese traditional medicine that showed promise in treating long COVID?

I must have missed that one because I'm not familiar with the study in question.

This sucks but these comments do make me feel less alone/like something is wrong w me. I mean there is but at least it’s not something I did to make my head feel like it’s constantly under water lol
