I live here and I can't believe it either. I do know some people are tired of the way things are and had a "let it burn" mentality, but that's not the way to go about it.

Reading this as I've been stuck entirely in bed for the 16th? 17th? day in a row as opposed to periods of the day. I can relate. And to second what someone else said, I feel forgotten by others. It sucks and I'm sorry you're dealing with this, too.

Diaphragmatic breathing works wonders on the nervous system. Also pausing to take a breath before answering helps collect your thoughts.
