Since 2020 ,being annoyed has become part of my life. Like everywhere I go ,theres this thing that constantly has to close my mouth 'for safety reasons'. For many people it was easy to adapt to ,and you will find them walking around with the mask without a problem. Then there's me who sometimes forgets that she doesn't have her mask on ,or forgets to even grab one before she leaves the house 🤣😭. It's funny and sad at the same time ,but I mean you just fall in love with the fact that you face is yours and you not sharing it with a mask. One of thee best feelings. Now I kinda cringe when I think back to 2020 ,when I was excited to wear a mask. Really thought it would be for a few months ,few months turned into few years ,few years might turn into few decades and I might still not have adapted to the maskeven then. The thing that annoys me the most about the mask is that I can't b as loud as I am. Each time I speak ,it just takes all the sound and keeps it to me. Then I have to repeat wat I said because the other person didn't hear me. I hate it. Honestly I deserve a break from the whole mask thing. If you agree with me comment "Thank you next" down below and if you don't comment "I'm cool". Forme ,Thank You Next.

Much like you I also hate wearing the mask and just hiding my face and having to sometimes struggle for breathing. It feels like I'm competing with the universe for myself. I hate it and I'm ready to move on.

I also still find it hard to adapt with the new normal, it already feels like it's been a decade of wearing these mask. I struggle from short breath, so everytime I'm wearing a mask i feel like I'm suffocating and, I'm gonna run out of breath, it's the worst feeling. I just can't wait to go out without a wearing one.

you know for a moment I thought it was metaphorical then I realized that you wear referring to the literal mask and crazy enough, this message is so ambiguous because even without this mask we are still wearing one!

I believe we will definitely be in a time where we don't have to wear masks anymore, especially me with spectacles, I hope that time comes soon. I need to raise my voice more for people to hear me, my lips get so chapped even when I apply lip balm, don't get me started on the rash on my neck it causes and completely dries out my skin, it won't be long before I start looking like a prune.

please Thank you next I am so over this.
both of these masks. cause honestly, it does not serve me well.

I never liked the issue of masks from the beginning. Those things make it difficult for me to breath although the aim was to protect us. However, this mask issue is almost over so that we can go back to our normal routine.

I was never a fan of mask as I also struggled from shortness of breath. Mask makes people become strangers as we no longer recognize each other with mask now we have to start over again and introduce our faces to the people we used to know.

I used to hate it too until I got infected by the virus. It's so painful that thing, one minute you better then the next you not. Doing a simple thing like bathing is so challenging. For your own safety, endure this mask thing.

personally I love masks very much. I love that when I’m wearing a mask most people can’t notice me . I also get the chance to talk alone without anyone noticing 😹. I honestly love masks may they never end .

I fully agree with you.This whole mask thing just annoys the hell out of me. The thing is, when Covid started, and this whole "mask thing" came in to place I was very upset. Main reason for that is I couldn't even breathe properly with the thing on my face.To me I felt smothered. It feels like a crime to wear that thing all the time.I'm super sick and tired of it.I wish it could be taken out for good. Everywhere you go you need to wear a face mask ,like what the heck? I'm so fed up of seeing the sign "NO MASK, NO ENTRY" it really annoys the daylights out of me.I just wish that things would go back to normal.

The mask is a funny thing , because I need to take off my mask to hear people properly🤣imagine. I wil still wear my mask even if rules change.
The mask has become apart of fashion , because now you actually have to wear a mask that fits your outfit. Because apparently it "clashes" colours if you don't. Having the mask on my face , I lowkey like it cause I can be anonymous. The mask also kinda keeps my face warm , yes it's a thin piece of material but, it a material that would never have been there.

Some people get face rashes because of the mask and that is not okay , some get horrible Acne😪, My skin has personally been very badly affected because of the mask. We all have trouble breathing through the mask , ofcourse it depends on the mask you choose , you always choose the mask that fits u best.

The mask has become part of our every day life (litterally) , I sometimes forget that i have the mask on my face, even when im at home, its become apart of my face and doesnt even feel weird anymore.

I agree with you that masks should come into an end soon someday, but on that I can say that masks had began to be adapted by so many people around the world, they also began to be something people like, they began to be the lifestyle and became something beautiful for instance just look at the girl on the Pic the mask looks pretty good on her.

So for me, as you can see by the heading, I have some mixed feelings towards the mask.

Sometimes I feel exactly how you feel, Asenathi. I have allergies, so when your nose is itching, your face is itching, you can’t stop sneezing and your nose is running, your mask is honestly the last thing you’d want to have to wear. It gets too much sometimes, and one really does wish that the time would come where they’ll all just be gone so that I could breathe properly.

But then on the other hand, when I’m not having an allergy/sinus attack, or not suffering from heat and suffocating areas, I actually quite enjoy wearing the mask. I love the fact that I can walk around without people noticing me, and even if they do, by the time they realize that I was me, I’ll be gone. I like that I’m not as seen and visible with the mask on. Although it sounds really contradictory, I feel free wearing the mask. I also cannot walk into a crowded space without my mask. I’m more weary now of personal space and breathing in other peoples air.

So I’m actually not sure if I want the mask to go. Maybe it could still be there for safety, but not compulsory. So for those who want to wear it and for those who don’t, they have a choice.

Knowing the truth about Covid, I dread having to wear a stupid mask. I find no purpose in wearing it because it won't benefit anything but having breath in your own carbon dioxide. I am tired and want to breathe normally. I am desperate to come back to being a human because honestly t,his mask makes you feel like a robot.

To me wearing a face mask always felt like I was straining myself. It is so hot and makes me feel drowsy and a lot dizzy. Everytime I wore it I felt like I was suffocating inside a small box where I could not go out. It was always hard for me to keep it on above my nose because breathing while wearing a mask is like an experience in hell.

I am glad that now we do not have to wear it a lot and I feel very happy about the fact that this COVID pandemic is now dropping and there are a few cases meaning that it is now coming to an end. I will miss wearing this suffocating mask though because I loved the fact that people could not identify who you are when walking on the road and therefore it helped me ditch many people sometimes. Now I will not be able to run away or try to ignore some people since this wearing of masks is coming to an end. However I will keep a few for myself and wear it when I do not want to be seen.

I don't have a problem with the mask. It's become a part of our daily life and fashion. We be like "where's my mask?" like we batman or something(lol). I personally like the mask. It gives me a sense of anonymity. I know some people have different views on this and they are entitled to their own opinion and shouldn't be judged for that. There are sometimes I don't like to wear the mask because it causes breathing problems and pimples on my face but that's it for me. I found ways to help me cope better with wearing the mask and I started to like wearing the mask.

This mask 😷 thing was something important to protect ourselves from Corona, but it was difficult to adapt to it and if you forget it back home you would not enter shops or places which was a problem cz you will end up not doing your important things you were supposed to do , but now it feels normal 😉

# data[].attributes.body
It’s been a year now and going and we’ve had to cover our faces wherever we go. It’s tiring even though it’s for our own safety when will it ever end ,we pray for the best every single day and just hope one day our lives will go back to normal

I am definitely apart of the people who doesn't mind wearing a mask please do not attack me . I've become accustomed to wearing mine and always carry extras with me. My realization of how easily we spread germs was triggered by the pandemic so you'll always catch me with a mask or my sanitizer nearby. Do I sometimes want some freedom or simply need to take a break from it all? Most definitely but I'll rather try to keep myself and family safe. When we had to start wearing a mask breathing was a bit difficult and when going to dance practice I had to continue practicing with masks but then it just became a norm to me. Perhaps it sounds boring to someone else, but I am quite comfortable with it and I am used to it.

I think that most of us were in shock when we found out that we were required to wear a mask everywhere we went.

At first, I hated it, because I could barely breathe and it made my glasses steam up. However, in winter I began to enjoy wearing a mask because my nose gets cold in winter haha!

I have also asked myself the question: How effective is the mask in preventing the spread of Covid-19? I am someone who wears my mask wherever I go and I rarely take it off, but I still managed to get the virus 3 times, in just 7 months !

I think some people can relate to me when I say that the mask gives me a feeling of safety, because I used to be so scared of contracting the virus! When I don't have it on in public I feel naked. Shows how quickly we are able to adapt to new situations.

I hope that soon the world can gain control over this virus and we can eventually all leave our masks at home :)

I mean the mask is here to protect us from contracting covid 19 but, I'm so done with wearing masks! Each time I go to the shopping mall I forget to take a mask with. It gets hard to breathe if you have it on for to long. I wish that one day everything would return back to normal and that we don't have to sanitize in every shop we go into. I hope that day comes very soon.

why should we put these on while knowing that the numbers increase rapidly? why should we close our mouth while this is a contagious virus ? you can close our mouth by we can still see what is operating in our economy these are not for the protection we are being silenced because we know the truth our mother, brothers and all those we've lost due to this virus their souls are being sold. They know if we talk with that mask on our voices won't be heard because our mouth is close let's wake up nation of Africa we are being silenced because we know the truth
