For the last 3-4 days I've been sick with a chest infection (nausea/vomiting for the first two days) and it's pî55ing me off.

I rarely get sick nowadays so when I do I get very depressed and lose almost all motivation to do anything, making me feel worse.

I can't exercise or workout and doing exercise makes me happy.

I'm not in the mood to work on my music, and making music makes me happy.

I don't feel like even playing video games, which also makes me happy. All I do is browse the net...

I don't feel as nauseous anymore. I could eat healthy if I wanted to, but I've lost my appetite because the chest infection gets in the way and it's harder to eat cereal and milk (I eat 6 meals a day, usually 3 of them being cereal with milk). I keep coughing up damn mucus that makes drinking milk more uncomfortable.

I've just been eating mcdonald's and rubbish the last two days.

Eating healthy also, makes me happier, so I also don't have that.

The only positive thing is I still get normal sleep amount...

What frustrates me most of all is how this happened.

Stupid, selfish, inconsiderate family friends at a party didn't take any sort of pre-cautions.

If they were so sick they shouldn't have come, and even if they got sick during traveling they still should have done their best to avoid getting others sick.

The entire fricken family is now practically sick because of them. Me, my mum, my step-dad, 3 younger siblings, uncle, aunt, her 2 children, all under one roof feeling sick (the family friends were stayed with us before leaving).

Even other members of the family who were at the party but dont live with me (cousins, other uncles, etc.) all got sick as well.

Chest infections, ear aches, nausea, etc. for the last week.

Pi55es me off so much.

It's how my family always gets sick - from someone else's irresponsibilty, negligence, stupidity.

Everytime my family has gotten very sick this year has been when visitng other family and friends because the selfish bå5tårds can't be considerate of others.

The last time it happened, I stayed with a friend and my family visited friends. A little girl, daughter of another visiting family (aka 3 families under one roof) still played with my little sister and got her sick. Little sister spread it to the whole house, all very badly sick for like 2 weeks.

I can't take this pathetic crâp anymore!!

Hi, sorry to hear you are so sick for so long. When I get sick with clogged ears and mucus in my chest, I stop the intake of any dairy products. I read somewhere that dairy products can make the mucus worse. It has helped me. I use "silk milk" made with almonds instead of dairy milk. Don't know if it will work for you but it has helped me. Hope you feel better soon!

Remind yourself that your illness won't last forever. Sometimes I find it helpful to just give in to being in sick mode.
