From people who came through it

  • โ€œI've been there. For me it was in 2023. Caught it in 2022 and never got back to normal. That was every day. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back.โ€

  • โ€œThe first few months are the hardest. I know. You're exhausted, your smell is wrong, and everyone says you'll get better but it feels like a lie. I've been there. I'm still there some days. But it does get better. Slowly. Not all at once. You'll find a new routine. You'll find people who get it. You'll have good days and bad days. On the bad days, just get through. On the good days, do one thing you love. And don't be afraid to ask for help. I still do.โ€
