Matt's Long Covid (and ME/CFS) Full Recovery Story
Matt developed long COVID after a mild infection, went through months of worsening fatigue, muscle and joint aches, insomnia and a bed-bound period before gradually recovering through pacing, nervous-system calming practices, CBT and gradual exposure to feared activities. He describes himself as fully recovered, though he notes some lingering anxious thoughts about symptoms returning even after getting better. His account shows that recovery was gradual and effortful rather than a sudden switch, which may be reassuring to anyone earlier in a similar experience.
