Corona isn't scary.

Tell me I'm not alone with this but my depression have been high lately and I could care less if I died from corona. Yes I care about those who have it and yes I would be heart broken if my family members got sick. After all it is serious yet for some reason I'm not scared or worried about myself in this time.

Sounds about right to me. The only reason I worry about getting it is my son.

You should be dear, it a horrible death to go though. I just lost my friend to it, he’s wife is in intensive care. He’s son, wife, an infant are in the hospital too. Think about this these people can’t breathe, being on a respirator is god awful, I’ve seen my father go though it, he was going crazy with it on. So please don’t think that way, life is precious. I have PTSD but I don’t want to die!

I worry about my family first. I couldn't handle it.

But, I don't want to die. I also don't want to be a carrier and make others sick.

I don’t want to die. I have reasons to keep living. I have a second grandchild due in May, my daughter needs us to be strong for her and help her get through this... My husband is 9 years older than me, so a slight age risk.

I guess I’ll be selfish for a moment...I don’t want to die or die alone. I feel so much for those dying in hospitals not being able to say good bye to their loved ones.

That breaks my heart that people can't be together in the hospital. I would have a complete breakdown I'm not kidding.

I've heard that in some areas no one is allowed to enter the birthing room and many women are having their babies alone. Do you know if that's the case where your daughter lives.

Congrats on your new grand baby coming. Such joy for your family.

It is the case here to with regards to the birthing room unless it changes in 43 days when she is due.

Sadly I think we won’t be allowed in the hospital either, we have a while to go before we see things peak and hopefully start a downward slope with this corona and 43 days isn’t that far away.

I hope your family can be together ❤️

You are definitely not alone. I traveled until there was no place to really travel, too. I think my first purchase after this will be either a plane ticket or a vehicle. I participated in a group thing when all other similar events were shut down -- (no I didn't defy a governmental mandate; it just so happened I made the right gamble so to speak). Of course, if I get sick, it will not be a long drawn out process. No way.

Nutrition, exercise, and completing goals are the only things I can credit for being alive today. I used to credit people, yet most are very useless and I don't care for many people. If any.

You are not alone.

This is how I feel too. I'm a fatalist. It seems like a way out.
