Tennis Pro Tara Snyder on COVID-19 Symptoms and Life-Changing Long COVID

Approximately 90 million Americans have had COVID-19, and that number keeps rising as variants of the virus produce even more cases. At this stage in the pandemic, you might assume that getting infected will only make you feel mildly ill for a short while. That’s what former tennis pro Tara Snyder thought.
In an episode of Scan My Brain, she told Daniel Amen, MD, that she was diagnosed with COVID and had relatively mild symptoms. About 2-3 weeks later, however, she developed brain fog and memory issues, and she suffered from insomnia and a disturbing loss of pleasure. Her depression became so severe, she began having suicidal thoughts. “It was like a snowball effect,” she says to Dr. Amen.
Snyder isn’t alone. According to a 2022 study in BMJ, people who have had COVID-whether serious or mild infections-are at significantly higher risk of experiencing mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, sleep disturbances, and cognitive decline.

What was the protocol!!!??? This video does not help the rest of us with long covid. What do we do?

[@canileaveitblank1476]

These are all vid to promote his business. I’m not opposed to ppl making money, but, a little bit of “free help” would be nice!

[@adrielove9823]

Exactly! Wtf is the point of the video without telling those who are still suffering what to do. It’s so sad people rather make money now a days off people than helping them smh

[@eodonnell16]

There is a link in the description to a blog post that does give a few recommendations of things to do to help with long covid.

[@samobog1]

Is there possibility that you can recommend what the supplements are. We are als suffering here and most of us don't have money to come to your clinic. Please it will safe life's🙏

Thanks Tara for doing this.

[@elisabethcarns9337]

I'm grateful for the work you are doing to positively affect people's brains and mental health. I wish more doctors had an integrative approach and stopped treating the mind and body as if they were completely separate entities.

[@queenj.8i895]

These are great! Just wish we could get a quick bullet point basic outline of what the healing plan looks like. ❤️‍🩹🙏🏽

[@marilyncolon8696]

Thank you for sharing, it helps.

[@AmenClinic]

Thanks for watching.

[@NerdyGirlLiveLove]

Same happened to me. nervous system deregulation due to inflammation. Month 6 each month a tiny better. Complete anti inflammatory diet, supplements and meds. Also cbn, cbg, cbd calmed brain also so it can begin to Heal. Treat like tbi or ptsd.

[@maxim__prokhorov]

So how do you feel right now?

[@francescarrillo7080]

I watched this in hopes for some help. Nothing. I won’t bother calling Dr amen, I already know, thousands. I’m going to continue to trust God for my healing.

[@gaylewilson5076]

Me and my son still have long COVID and they the doctors don’t know nothing (Australia)

[@leecee2135]

Did she have vaccine protection?

[@IceHibiscus]

All vaccines have never had 100% efficacy. It doesn't matter if she had it or not, honestly. You are most likely to get a mild case, like her, when you do get a breakthrough infection. Much like me. When I got infected, I was 8 months post-booster. Aside from 2 day laryngitis, I have only had neurological symptoms. The best predictor of long COVID neurological complications are preexisting brain health issues. Everything that I had trouble with multiplied threefold the week I started testing negative for the antigen. I am currently not functional. So, vaccines have nothing significant to do with long COVID severity, in my opinion. I kicked COVID very fast but I am not the same person anymore. I am miserable nearly every waking moment I encounter impairment.

This sounds like menopause at its finest!!

[@browneyedgirlFL67]

Did she take the 💉?

[@Tiff-vi9kx]

I wish more people would understand COVID can do this. The vaccine cured my brain frog and memory loss.

[@anemicgoalhop495]

🤣🤣🤣

[@Tiff-vi9kx]

@@anemicgoalhop495 I’m not sure why you’re laughing at something as serious as brain health. You should probably get your brain checked if that’s your reaction.

[@anemicgoalhop495]

@@Tiff-vi9kx No, it's your belief that turning your body into a chronically inflamed, spike-protein producing factory actually IMPROVED your brain health that's laughable.

[@Tiff-vi9kx]

@@anemicgoalhop495 the vaccine is scientifically proven to improve long haul COVID symptoms. All the garage you just stated is myth. Anyway, I genuinely don’t care if YOU think it’s laughable. I lived it and I’m thriving and that’s all that matters to me. Have the day and life you deserve. 😊

[@anemicgoalhop495]

@@Tiff-vi9kx So you don't even know the vaccines turn you into a spike protein factory? That's actually what they're DESIGNED to do, as opposed to being "garbage". That's how they purport to produce immunity. So much for making a knowledgeable choice! Now that IS 🤣.
