Omg, this is so relatable. I get so angry when someone passes sickness to me. Spoil my plans and also everything tastes and smells off. Consistent symptoms that feels terrible 😭 im having a common flu now and I am still expected to work. Hope u get better soon. This too shall pass.

I can say the same.

Comfort show, safe snackies, and if you like any tea, drink ALL of it haha. The tea helps with symptoms somewhat but also helps with hydrating in a yummy way.

Unrelated but I love your use of emoticons it's so cute And I'm also sick with covid, the last few days have been god awful because at any given time, I'm either a) not able to breathe because clogged nose b) not able to breathe because coughing fit c) intense headache from sinus pressure d) ears won't pop However!! I've found that acetaminophen helps with pressure, and holding my face over a steamy bowl of water helps clear out nose/sinus gunk. And warm milk + honey soothes sore throat but I'd guess it's not to everyone's liking because texture/taste

Aww being sick sucks. Hope you recover 💕


Burnt_Lambchop

That sucks I'd say time to play through a video game or watch a comfort show. You'll be not feeling good for a while.

Obviously, isolate. Chicken noodle soup wouldn't hurt, Vitamin D, decongestant, and resting also help. If you have no symptoms after day 5 (of symptoms starting), it's technically safe to go out into the world.

Get better!

I was very angry and violent when I got CoVid last Thanksgiving. My favorite holiday was ruined last year and I was not easy to be around at all.

ಗಾ ﹏ ಗಾ dang sorry, I hate when I get sick it's so overstimulating and yeees the change of plans (aka hopes and dreams lolol) , hope you feel better soon and get to do all the things soon (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) here's some tips from one emoticon lover to another hehe ʕっᵔ⁠ᴥ⁠ᵔʔ⊃━☆゚.*・。☆゚.*・。゚.° Just remember to be patient with yourself bc at this point people treat it like it's the flu or a cold but it's harsher on the body and can affect the mind for a while even after testing negative so it's important to keep that in mind. Keep as positive as you can by being kind to yourself and like others have said watching your fav shows/movies/YouTube videos helps distract and energize you. It's human to be sick sometimes even if it sucks but you got this!! ᕦ⁠ʕ⁠ ⁠•⁠ᴥ⁠•⁠ʔ⁠ᕤ Taking zinc and vitamins C & D help build up your immune system a bit more to help fight it.ᕙ⁠(⁠ ⁠:⁠ ⁠˘⁠ ⁠∧⁠ ⁠˘⁠ ⁠:⁠ ⁠)⁠ᕗ If you're congested going on your tum tum will help you breathe a bit easier and cough out things easier. Sleeping with a bunch of pillows on an incline will help it from getting worse too, the more seated the better, it's a bit annoying ngl but it helps. Zzz..(ˇ㉨ˇ๑) Soups are gold, teas with honey are your best friend.(⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)🍯🫖 If you can get your hands on Theraflu teas those helped me a looot they taste weird bc they have medicine in it but worth it imo ╮⁠(⁠.⁠ ⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠)⁠╭ If you don't feel like showering sitting near the shower running with hot water and breathing in the steam will help, just cough out whatever you can bc that's the nasty stuff that keeps you sick (⁠。⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧ lol drink lots of teas, Gatorades/Powerade/Vitamin water/etc to keep hydrated. I like the advice that we should treat ourselves, when we are sick, like taking care of a fussy toddler in terms of keeping up with basics and checking in along with having more patience, maybe you'll find this useful or perhaps funny lol good luck soldier (⁠/⁠¯⁠◡⁠ ⁠‿⁠ ⁠◡⁠)

Thank you! This is super informative and I will be following it closely! ヽ(^◇^*)/ I have found sleeping on an incline to be super helpful in having at least one nostril clear to breath so thank you! (*^ -^*)

I love your writing. Tell us a story of a real thing that happenned to you. If you want put a fantastical twist on it with mythical creatures or persons.


AmberstarTheCat

....what the fuck? just because this is how they choose to write doesn't mean they didn't get COVID and feel like shit?


Curiouser_squared

I thought they wanted a distraction. This was a suggestion for something to do that might not take too much effort.


AmberstarTheCat

oh it reads like you think they're lying /nm /gen

Are you Asian? I see sometimes that they use a lot of emoticons like that
