Covid and anxiety

[KWC]

Hi was wondering if any of you lovely lot could help me. I havent tested but i think im dealing with covid. Last wednesday night i started feeling crappy, and my body was aching from top to bottom, been exhausted and just feeling really poorly, the aches have now subsided however the last 2 mornings ive been awake during the night and not been able to get back over due to anxiety. I take 100mg sertraline as i suffer with anxiety and have been stable for a year. Im more just wondering if anyone has suffered the same symptoms and how long ut took for the anxiety to calm back down? Tia x

Morning. I currently have Covid (day 7 or thereabouts) and am
on 150mg Sertraline. Unusually, I slept quite well last night but this morning have woken up feeling really anxious. No idea why, could be related to many things, but it has occurred to me that COVID may somehow be to blame as it seems to be messing up so much else of my body!
If you can possibly try to relax @KWCit may help you to recover more quickly? Best wishes anyway x

(fwiw I have a few complex health conditions to manage, those seem to be under control, but could also be the source of anxiety if they’re going off-kilter 🤷🏻‍♀️)

I have been reading quite alot in regards to the interactions covid can have on your body and feel like it is effecting my sertraline absorbtion, i dont feel too unwell from the covid i seem to be back to side effects of start up from sertraline more so! Im so ready to just feel myself again!

I'm getting over covid for the fourth time and every time awful anxiety is a symptom. I take antidepressants also.

No way really! How long does the anxiety usually last before it settles down again? I though i was pooping out on my tablets!

The anxiety is bad to start with and lessens as I get better. Im still feeling very run down 5 weeks after I caught covid and now have sinus infection and on antibiotics, so anxiety has come back a bit. Hope you feel better very soon! Anxiety is very common with covid xx

Aww bless you, ive heard that this covid going around tends to give you false hope thinking your better then you get hot woth something else! Im a week today with it now anxiety started a couple of days ago i just feel exhausted and cant eat much! I hope you feel better soon too! Xx
