The worst parts about being sick for me are chapped lips, hearing decreases, stuffy nose, runny nose, extreme fatigue, pressure around my head, pressure when I stand up, and when the runny nose causes a crust to be formed around my nostrils. The crust part is the all time worst.

What happens when you get sick

Me: you sleep and sleep and sleep

[MizoPlays]

I stopped going to the doctor when I got cold or sick. No medicines nothing. I let myself recover naturally. And now I hardly ever get sick, maybe just once in a year and in 2017 I haven't been sick yet.

The worst fever I've ever had was 105 degrees fahrenheit... o.o

A while ago I was extremely sick and had a 105(F) temperature. For weeks I had normal cold symptoms as well as a lack of energy, lightheaded-ness, prone to collapsing, a lack of balance, and extreme fatigue. One night I had dreams of myself drowning and woke up in a sweat-soaked bed. After I woke up I began hallucinating and was absolutely certain that I was dying. I mumbled about death, drowning, a lake, and a dying sun. My mom was terrified and considered taking me to the hospital. I eventually went back to sleep and recovered about a week later. I never thought about it until now, but was I close to death?

Hey Blocko, 1st of all... YOU'RE 2nd of why do we throw up?

[HateTaxesWASt]

Ginger Ale, chicken noodle soup, warm bath, clean sheets, and watching a good movie.
