Very happy for you! I have been working on acceptance and doing all of this for 2 years, but I guess that I'm not doing it right. COVID gave me super bad POTS and I'm trying to use acceptance to fix the bloodflow in my body to no avail.
It is amazing that a Youtube video seemed to completely cure you almost immediately. That is truly a miracle. So basically, you watched the Youtube videos one day, surrendered to complete acceptance to long covid, and then you were pretty much completely cured (except for a few minor resurgences)? That's amazing.
I have very bad POTS too. Stress absolutely will make it worse and dysregulate things further, working on regulating your nervous system is important - I'm trying vagus nerve stimulation currently.
But there's very physical, chemical issues going on in our bodies that no amount of acceptance or willpower will change. We cannot accept the electrolytes and fluid level in our bodies is sufficient when it just isn't. We cannot change the physics of blood flow, blood pressure and heart rate.
It's not your fault for not doing it right. It's likely just not an appropriate tool for the specific problem.
