It's almost like the aftermath from COVID has been harder on me than COVID ever was. While my social interaction decreased in COVID it wasn't high to begin with so I didn't really notice it much.

But I think COVID had a similar effect on much of my extended family that you guys are talking about (fortunately not my wife). Now when families get together they talk about Trudeau's abuse of power and freedom fighting truckers and how their naturopaths deride the vaccines because one vaccinated friend got cancer and on and on. My parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, everyone.

I really work hard to try and avoid all political discussions when we get together with my parents.

I feel like I've lost my family.. I mean I haven't, 99% of them still would support me unconditionally but it feels like I'm an outsider and it sucks.
