Summary
Canyon 24682 describes long COVID starting after COVID was brought into their home about three years before June 2025. They report brain distortion, head pain during the infection and a disturbing change in perception that pushed them into a psychological break. Therapy, meditation, medication and time did not resolve it; gaming improved cognition a little and cognition later seemed back to normal, but they still described life as unreal.
