Anxiety and depression

Came down with covid last week, was really Ill. Was delirious for 48 hours. Missed a couple of things I’d been looking forward to for months / lost my dad earlier this year.

all through being Ill I’ve felt really really low and even now still feeling very depressed, no appetite whatsoever. Just want to curl into a ball. Is this normal?

See your GP and be completely honest with all that’s happened and how you feel. Definitely the first step to take

Bless your heart, sorry you're experiencing this after losing your dad. I'm in the same boat in terms of this awful virus bringing out my anxiety and making me really weepy. I think viruses can trigger these things. Definitely speak to your doctor, as the virus may have passed? And you're just left with the anxiety and low mood xxx

I have pretty mild Covid right now and my normally well controlled anxiety has really taken me by surprise with it spiralling constantly to catastrophic scenarios. I wondered if that was pretty common as a little expected side effect of Covid. You have my sympathies, it's really unpleasant.

I am just out of covid. My experience was a bad 48 hours of physical symptoms and then I felt physically well. But I’m the same my already anxious state has been heightened and I’m depressed. I’m also finding my decision making and memory/ concentration very poor. Hoping this is temporary
