I have had covid for the past week. I have been fine and feeling better physically now however have noticed a distinct slip in my mood. Prior to catching covid I had a manic phase and am not sure if the drop in mood is related to that (which would be typical), just covid or its own thing. Anyway I am unmedicated atm having finished my acute medication for mania because my partner and I are in the process of trying for a kid (obviously not actively during mania or covid). I just don't know when to contact my Phychatrist about my dip in mood. Like I feel maybe a 3 (1=the lowest, 10=full blown euphoria). Apathetic, no appetite, irritable, guilt about everything you know the usual. The CMHT where I live is super stretched and I don’t particularly want to contact them for a non event that resolves itself. I do though have a history of hospitalisation and with out meds fear things could plummet fast.

Anyway my question is this. People who have had covid did it effect your mood noticeably? More than just the usual malaise after illness.
