Being able to recognize my anxiety triggers, and realizing that if I don't address it immediately, I'll just go into panic mode has helped me a lot. I am off daily anxiety meds now, but I still need the occasional Xanax when it breaks through.

I know long COVID has been described as typically a 1.5-2 year length, but I have permanently been affected. I've mentioned it in other posts before, but I have considered going to Portland to try a session of therapy through psychedelics since some testing shows that it tears down and renews neural pathways, almost like a reset switch.
