Hi, in trying to understand my personal long-haul response to a presumed COVID infection in March 2020, I came to understand it as primarily a systemic PTSD response, and I believe that ACES and other unresolved traumas and chronic stressors/isolation are major contributing factors. I am looking for people in the medical/public-health fields to collaborate with to study and increase awareness of the relationship between chronic stress and long haul symptoms, in order to help people recover. Any ideas?
FWIW, I am a criminal-defense appellate attorney based in Oakland, California.
