Hello. I caught covid on 1/1/23, only had the severe flu-like symptoms for about two or three days (headache, fevere, chills, body pain, etc.) but my withdrawal symptoms got much worse than acute once the main virus symptoms left. I already had air hunger in withdrawal, but now it's become worse. My body feels like it's rushing and tingly every day, I am eay more depressed, developed brief akathisia which I had never had, my sleep is worse, and I feel restless and hopeless. I have also had my choking symptom return. I can't find as many posts on here about this as I'd hope for, and a lot of people seem to post about this lasting a year.

I feel devastated, as I was starting to slightly improve from withdrawal, but now feel I can hardly get out of bed or distract myself with anything. I feel totally convinced that this will last a long time because that's what I see for other people. But I haven't seen a case where somebody seemed to get VERY bad and then better quickly. Any answers appreciated please.

For those of you who HAVE had a long lasting covid setback, when did you feel that it became TOLERABLE? . . . Thank you.
