Has anyone here tested positive for covid-19? What was your experience, symptoms, etc.? And if you are willing to share, what’s your age, gender, and do you have any pre-existing health conditions? I’ve seen tons of data, but just want to hear about different experiences now too from people that have had it.

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it. I started in the military and it only took 2 months for me to get out and fall into a bottomless hole of depression. My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)

Has anyone had an IVF cycle cancelled? I’m going in for stims day 8 monitoring tomorrow morning and thus far they’ve just told me that due to my lower AMH (1), it just takes time for them to grow.

One of the best things about COVID lockdown: The pause on “how many points?” posts in this bowl.

Stress is causing a massive flare-up of racing thoughts recently. I feel like it's been at least a week or two since I last was able to completely clear my mind. And if it's not random stream-of-consciousness mess, it's music. Ever had a song stuck in your head? Because I've had one for four days now. Driving me nuts. Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?
