Top Comments of this video!! :3
Im autistic and i was a student over Covid and i loved it so much, obviously not the pandemic itself but the lockdowns, I was living with my family, spending all day lying in the garden in the sun, making damn iced coffees, not doing any work, not having to socialise, going on daily exercise walks in nature with absolutely no one else aroundā¦ I miss having time away from financial/academic duties and being able to just live and I think thatās what everyone is really having nostalgia for

The other day, I was thinking about the last four years. Realizing It was basically almost all a blur. This is coming from someone who used to remember EVERYTHING. Thought I was just getting old, because I am. Talking to others though, I realize it is many who donāt remember much since the pandemic.
It is what it is.

Itās so validating to hear someone else say that nostalgia physically pains them. All my life I have struggled with nostalgia being a very intense and gut wrenching emotion as well. I also think a lot of people (myself included) miss the slower pace of the pandemic. Going back to fast paced jobs, lives, etc. is jarring and I find that I yearn for the slower pace and better work life balance we found during the pandemic.

my brother got diagnosed with cancer literally ten days after i got home from college for the lockdown (he is now cancer free). it was awful at the time but i am so weirdly nostalgic for those times now. itās like looking back at a āsimpler timeā where i felt like i had a valid excuse for feeling unwell

I used to always think that if I could just pause life for 1 month and focus on myself, Iād be able to catch up on so many things and officially have my shit together.
Then COVID happened and proved me wrong, because I had all the free time I could want and did nothing. So at least I can't use that excuse anymore.

I was an āessential workerā(Starbucks) so I have no nostalgia for the height of covid. I literally worked from like 6am to 4 or 5pm sometimes with like 2-3hr long rushes, had multiple panic attacks while dealing with entitled ass customers complaining about being stuck home, while I was ālucky to be working.ā I know I shouldnāt, but I honestly envy the people who had time to themselves to work on little creative pursuits then.

Her saying she would drive to the Party City to relive that day breaks me for some reason. Being so desperate to relive something that feels so pivitol to your development and sheer happiness without ever getting it is such a battle everyday. It feels like waking up from a dream where you're flying knowing you'll never experience that while you wake. This feels like a video diary sent by a future self fr

The comment about the praise kink from the phlebotomist reminded me of when I was getting tested for gestational diabetes, where you get multiple blood draws in a few hours, and I pointed to the āgood veinā that most phlebotomists went to in the past. But he looked at me and said āoh yeah, Iām saving that for later.ā Had me leaving like āsir?? What are weā at like 30 weeks pregnant

I felt at peace during the pandemic because it felt like everything slowed down. I could never relate to any of the people around me having a really tough time and wishing for it to end because for me everything was much simpler, people cared more, online classes were great, there was no pressure to leave the house and my mom was still alive. My needs were better met during this time. When everything started rerurning to normal I felt anxiety while others cheered.
From a neurodivergent, exhausted young adult's perspective who hasn't been able to attend offline lectures (even pre-covid) the pandemic was a blessing in disguise. Life has been worse since then.

I was 13 when the pandemic hit, I really miss those spring mornings, not caring about online school, zoom calls and Kahoot, playing the ukulele (š), watching animal crossing videos. It was a weird time to be growing up and I feel so guilty to admit it but I am glad it happened. I didnāt care about the rest of the world, just rotting in my room. It feels so painful to know that itās over and I wonāt experience it again even though in the long term it destroyed my mental health.

ive never understood how people say nostalgia is bittersweet, to me it's gut wrenching. like even right now i can't even enjoy things fully because i know that it will be over eventually.
