Re: I can't believe it's been 6 months... feeling discouraged.
Lencoboy, I agree with what has been said because I'm a bit like you. I've been scouring multiple sources, reading about cases, symptoms, vaccines etc ad nauseum. Its created a lot of friction between me and my wife and daughter. With a wife having underlying health conditions and a daughter in a public facing job, my anxiety has been tested big time. I go from hope to despair and back again. But I know deep down that surfing the web for answers is making me worse, we can't control what others do and somehow we have to accept that, its not easy. I've even accused my daughter of not doing enough to protect her mother which is very unfair. Its anxiety driving that but still no excuse.
Yesterday wife and me had our flu jabs. We were about to drive away from the medical centre car park when someone who knows Mrs F shoves her face right up to my wife's open window, barely a foot away. That's the kind of ignorance we are up against, just after we had navigated the medical centre all masked up. I felt like punching the woman but when I thought about it afterwards, I think we are all capable of letting our guard down. This virus is playing havoc with us all. Look after yourself Lencoboy, and the same to everyone else on this forum.
