It is often very hard to be positive. I had my daughter, son-in-law and 2 year old granddaughter stay with me for a couple of weeks. I 'psyched' myself up to be positive the time they were here. I felt positive, and stayed that way, for the time they visited. Now, a few weeks later, I'm trying to feel physically and mentally, better. I feel like I've been pulled back into some of the worse parts of long haul covid. I'm just starting to feel closer to my 'new normal'. So, I think you are right. Trying to be positive can sometimes cause a good deal of stress!

I've experienced many times now how my body can somehow hold it together when I need it to - for example for a visit with family or friends, or when my kids really need me - but then afterwards, I completely crash. I'm glad you got to spend time with family but so, so sorry to hear what a toll it's taken on you! I get it. Sending you a hug!
