Idk if I’m depressed? I don’t feel depressed...

Am I being lazy for sleeping so much all week?

Or does Covid-19 really make a person this exhausted?!

I can't speak for if you're depressed or not, but I do know someone who had COVID. It made her very exhausted. She slept nonstop for weeks. Her description was it was like a cross between the flu and mono plus she couldn't smell anything.
Thanks for this!

It knocked my Dad out for about two weeks. He's a pretty healthy guy, but he was sleeping a lot and just felt general malaise.

I think it is important to try not to judge yourself too hard right now. Just take it as it comes and try to keep your spirit up. Hang in there Halliebeth!
Thanks for this!

From everything I've heard and read covid causes severe fatigue for almost anyone who gets it. Some people have only the fatigue. I wonder if the covid fatigue and meds causing tiredness can cause a kind of monsterous fatigue.

I think Covid has knocked you off your feet. Prior to catching this you were feeling the most stability in years. You know what I think , Sleep any time your body says it and eat whether you want to or not, You don't want the meds just eating away at your stomach

I had Covid - does make you tired and did mess with my emotional state - had weird pockets of depression and hopelessness.
