Thought someone else might need this too. I'm in the group where the vaccine doesn't work and at high risk of bad outcome with covid. My life has shrunk from perfectly normal- working, busy social life, travel, restaurants, cinema, parties, concerts to just walks and zoom calls. Just normal.
With life going back to normal, everyone is busy and people don't want to meet outside when they can be in a cafe or pub or at a fun event. I'm keeping busy but at times feel like a non person. When there were masks and lower levels I was risking the odd event or cafe.
I don't like to complain in real life as people don't know what to say, or don't understand, and I'm even more likely to be dumped by friends and family if I'm not fun when I do see people. Today lots of friends are meeting up at a big event and it's the first time I've not gone. I feel guilty as my partner also chose not to go.
I know I'm lucky as we can just about afford for me not to work but it does put more pressure on my partner and makes me financially vulnerable. We have a child at school but that is a risk we take as they need to be with friends and learn.
Just looking for people in similar situations and how they are finding life when the covid levels are so high.
I probably sound like a right miseryguts but I'm not normally
