Flu

[Watermelon]

Hey all I hope your all well
Well after Saturday I started to get flu like symptoms they have progressively got worse. Temp but chills, running nose, blocked nose, sore throat, cough, slight earache and odd tummy pains. Checked covid three times and I’m clear so it’s flu!!
My anxiety has been bad today I don’t no if it’s because it’s the first night I managed some sleep in a while! Everything is triggering me I’m assuming because I’m unwell. My throat is sore and feels raw and swollen causing me so much anxiety. I no it’s flu and I’m fine but my anxiety won’t let it go. Any advise? Thanks all x

Way way before i found anxiety forums whenever i got common cold or the flu I would have bad anxiety and thought i was the only one...would go on random forums and see if anyone else could relate. None the less you aren't alone and you will be ok.

The flu is back and doing the rounds. Lot of people have it. Plenty of water and pleanty of rest. it will pass.
