I'm sorry for ranting about something so personal here, but I can't cope and everyone is ignoring me.

I have this terrible stomach virus. I have never felt more sick in my life. I already have extreme sensory problems relating to poop, and now I have I can't even spell it, it starts with a d, you know what I mean.
I'm probably deleting this later bc this is embarrassing af, but I'm actually in sensory hell right now. What did I do to deserve this punishment? I already took all the medicine I could, but my options are limited bc I can't swallow pills.
It hurts and this is the most unpleasant thing I have ever felt. And I have had many stomach problems. To add to the stress, I'm trying to hold it in because my sister is home and she's judging me.
This is the worst ever sensory experience and I have no idea what to do. I can barely move, moving makes it much worse. I keep thinking it will be over but it just keeps coming back. And the medicine hardly does anything, and I've already reached my limit for how much I can take today.
I'm already in therapy for a related issue, this s**t is going to put my progress back. I'm just trying to survive.
I feel like I'm dying, and I'm not being dramatic. :(

Oh hun that sounds terrible! No one likes having a stomach bug. Best not to hold it in. Just get it over with and do what you gotta do. You’re going to hate me for this but sometimes in life there is suffering. You’re just going to have to suffer through it. Be glad this is only a bug because I think I’m dying from something. You’re problem will pass... and I’m just going to pass lol ... I’m sorry I know I’m bad at this. Drink real fruit juice and plenty of other fluids. Try to avoid caffeine and foods that make your tummy ache. If you can, ask someone to make you homemade chicken soup. I know this is a hard ordeal but you’ll get through it in a few days. Ignore your sister. For it is a siblings mission in life to be annoying.
