I did much better once I changed things up. Find something that takes you outside and do something different/safe. (Outside activities are very safe)

You could also take precautions and just bite the bullet. Buy some medical grade masks, and go out into the world. The virus isn't going to disappear, but that doesn't mean you have to disappear from the world. Take all the precautions you can and you should be pretty safe.

Good luck 👍

thanks for this advice. I've been thinking about this over the past few days and I think you're right about venturing outside. The virus isn't going to disappear anytime soon. I def can't stay cooped up forever. So I need to find ways to go out. There are activities, like hiking, biking, snowboarding, that I can do solo. But being vaccinated, there's no reason to avoid meeting up with friends.

Also had a recent Covid scare with symptoms that were likely due stress and a mild cold. That made me realize that in the worst case scenario, I would mostly regret not enjoying my life. Thanks again for the words of wisdom. It gave me so much to think about.
