hey you guys, we’re on vacation so i was hoping that maybe you could do me a favor and please tell miss lady that she misspelled “being psychosomatic.”
Recently, I made an offhand comment to someone about how things are opening up because omicron gets everyone and it's no big deal. She said, "No--covid should be taken seriously. I had a friend die recently of long covid." I asked how exactly he died of "long covid" and she said "by suicide" after suffering for over a year. Suicides have indeed increased in the past 2 years, along with drug overdoses and fatal car accidents. All these things, including very likely in most cases "long covid", are MANIFESTATIONS OF MENTAL ILLNESS due in very large part to all the lies, propaganda, discrimination/mandates, job losses, economic BS, censorship, automation, surveillance, masking, "social distancing" and other isolation, etc that have descended on us in this time.
If I am not mistaken, another highly correlated predictor of long covid is testing negative for covid. So...asymptomatic, negative test = long covid...? I guess if someone feels like they have long covid, they do. Just ask them. You can't deny their feelings because they are the only ones who can feel them, right?
I am just a regular Spaniard and don't hold a PhD in English language or literature so forgive me guys if everybody gets it and this is stupid, but what the fuck is she trying to say?
Go look at her "survivor corps" website. What a narcissistic moronic putz this woman is. "One of the first people in her area testing positive - here's her blog!' Who gives a crap. Another grifter.
Ideology is a specious way of relating to the world. It offers human beings the illusion of an identity, of dignity, and of morality, while making it easier for them to part with them.
I'm never going to tell an individual that they have psychosomatic illness, because doctors these days are bad enough that they'll handle that for me, even if the patient has tumors and an aneurysm. Ask me how I know. 🙄
But I am very worried about the long term mental health effects of our approach to COVID, fearmongering about Long COVID and all the other stuff. Because not only are people going to insist they're sick when they're not AND GET TREATMENT, others will seek out help from psychiatry. That rarely ends well.
If I would have told anyone in the medical profession prior to 2020 that by 2022 there would be tens of millions of new hypochondriacs in the US alone I would have been put on a psychiatric hold. Yet here we are.
Probably the symptom she's referring to is 'mass formation psychosis'. Can be hard for the sufferer because no matter how accurate the diagnosis, the afflicted person just won't accept the it.
Sorry to bust up the fun but I gotta try to invoke a little compassion here. Psychosomatic illness is mental illness, and mental illness is real physiological illness. Autopsies of people who died of suicide show evidence of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. I struggled with mental illness most of my life, from toddlerhood, and it all vanished 8 years ago when I changed my diet to include lots of meat and remove the most inflammatory plant foods (autoimmune paleo diet, but carnivore and some versions of keto also work). I've seen the same with patients. People with hypochondria, eating disorders, mood disorders, personality disorders, and even psychosis turn on a dime when they do diets like this faithfully. I think this is the reason why in epidemiological studies it looks like vegans and vegetarians have more psych issues. (see Ellen/Elliot Page for one particularly illustrative example). More dems are vegan/vegetarian. I say this as a former dem, vegan, and at another time, vegetarian. Anyway.
Just had it a couple of weeks ago. Oddly I developed a cough after I was feeling better. I just hit the liposomal vit c hard and was better in 2 days, job done. No virus can take large doses of vit c
Yes, the most feared thing has to be health. (for the pharma industry especially)
As for "long COVID", it's a new name for an old thing that existed in patients with other respiratory viruses, including influenza, before. The last study, from sept 2021, I saw looked at early Wuhan (or perhaps delta) vs. influenza, and only some of the symptoms labelled under "long covid" were more present than in Influenza cases, the worst ones up to ~ 1.8x as much as in influenza (although it was not clear how they made sure that their "covid" cases were really only that - iof they didn't, this dilutes more). 1.8 is something, but not orders of magniotude, let alone "never seen before catastrophic thing".
Another term for it is “long mask.” Chuck the filth tags, breathe fresh air, get VitD and NAC, do n’ose breathing exercises and use mouth tape at night. Done.
Whatever I had in Jan 2020 was not asymptomatic and also left some pretty nasty sequelae in its wake that kicked up again after 10 days of omicron symptoms. That being said it's nothing to fear, just something that needs better understood so it can be dealt with. I've also learned that similar post viral syndromes have always affected a significant minority of acute cases. If the fear mongering around covid has done anything good perhaps it is by bringing attention long lyme, cfs, mcas and the like. These conditions seem to often be dismissed as 'all in your head' as has long covid.
And here I thought the past two years just avoided getting sick. Guess I had an asymptomatic case of every variant and asymptomaptic long covid all along. Thank you Crazy Lady for the info and muchas gracias Senor Gato for bringing her wisdom to the masses.
kitten corner: typos
More proof that mental illness may be airborne.
some people just want so badly to be sick. very strange.
Actually "somatic" in this case is unnecessary.
Two years sure feels like #LongCovid to this asymptomatic person.
It's like the movie Sixth Sense - I see COVID people!
“Doctor, why are you giving me a prescription for crutches? I have two legs, and they both work!”
“Yes, yes, but our tests show you are asymptomatically one-legged.”

How is being asymptomatic a symptom of acute covid?
These people really do become caricatures of themselves after awhile.
So being healthy is actually a sign of illness. So...night is day, virtue is vice, fascism is democracy and truth is lies...

So asymptomatic COVID leading to all sorts of random life-long symptoms is the new name for "Vaccine Side Effects".

🤣🤣🤣 Nice try, Diana. Your wolf-cries are all used up now.
Hypochondriasis
i just noticed that the biggest covid clown in the world retweeted it!
😂 this has got to be a parody account, surely.
The better you feel, the sicker you are!
The wronger I sound, the righter I actually am!
The more reasonable you try to be, the crazier you truly are!
Haha, asymptomatic is neither cute nor acute!
You're supposed to unplug. Especially from Twatter.
Wait! Malo Gato is supposed to be taking a break and not reading Covid crap. Where’s my squirt bottle?!

Did anyone see that Biden received his 4TH JAB yesterday? Is any of this going to catch up to him?
It's OK. We already see that Dian is aberrant.
If I would have told anyone in the medical profession prior to 2020 that by 2022 there would be tens of millions of new hypochondriacs in the US alone I would have been put on a psychiatric hold. Yet here we are.
I replied to Dingleberry that we now know that psychosis is not asymptomatic.
Probably the symptom she's referring to is 'mass formation psychosis'. Can be hard for the sufferer because no matter how accurate the diagnosis, the afflicted person just won't accept the it.
Heh. Did Berenson hack el gato's login credentials and post that while gato's on vacation?
God they're hanging on to that rope while it shreds their fingers to chum. Great Whites of the World: Put 'em out of their misery...
I feel great. Should I be applying for benefits?

These are some of the people I work with. F’ing Nutjobs.

If only she would say that outloud and get a BAHHAHAHA! response from any that heard her🙏🙏🙏
Dian Abberent: Being asymptomatic is probably the most common symptom of every disease at some point.
Another term for it is “long mask.” Chuck the filth tags, breathe fresh air, get VitD and NAC, do n’ose breathing exercises and use mouth tape at night. Done.
Fear porn fear porn fear porn
How do you know if you have asymptomatic long covid?
So not having covid, means that I am more likely to get long covid. Okay!
oh... I'm rting this tomorrow for April fools
I've bad news for her. There is no hope for her condition. So sorry.
I think she meant "being psychotic."
They just make it up as they tumble forward.
So, does this mean there really are monsters under the bed and in the closet after all?

I am asymptomatically wealthy
