It's getting to be that time of the year again! Nothing like a bad case of the sniffles to put you in that autumnal spirit!

I've got a runny/stuffy nose and a sore throat to match. I woke up this morning feeling unusually better about it than I had been, thinking, "Hey! Maybe it blew over already...!" Ha. As if. Being able to talk sure would be nice.

I've only just recovered from the cold now. I'll be checking in with the doctor today, so at least I might learn if I have any allergies.

Edit: Nothing. Just rotten luck.

I had a really sore throat a couple of days ago but now it's starting to affect the rest of my head. The back of my throat & my nose are feeling stuffy.

And I'm dealing with a canker sore, to boot.

I'm gonna blow a gasket, I can't get to an allergy specialist earlier than next month. Until then, I'm gonna fucking sniffle myself to death!

Been sick all week.

Did not know this thread existed.

It's going away now, but FOR SOME REASON MY EARS HURT.

WHY!?

Colds don't do that! >.<

Can't skip anymore, though; if I miss 3 days more, I fail the tenth grade. evil grin

I've had a nasty cold lately, mostly taking the form of coughing. I swear, this last week I've swallowed more phlegm than food.

I have a 101 degree fever, I'm shivering yet it's so hot outside the AC will turn on, my head hurts, my throat hurts, and I keep coughing.

Ugh. T-T -cuddles up under his blankets-

I was exposed to a large crowd of children three days ago, and as predictable as clockwork, I'm sick with a cold now. I kept my hands sanitized but I must have breathed in so much child air.

I guess Chuck E. Cheese was kinda worth it. It's not like any other Arcades exist anymore.

@ten: Poor guy! Do you have someone to bring you tea and soup and lime juice cordial?

I am in the throws of insane hayfever. I've only had it for a couple of years, but this time around it feels like my brain is trying to escape by leaking out of my eyes and nose. It got so bad the other day I could barely breathe.

What the hell, immune system?

Completion, I think you might be entering your depressive state. That's usually how mine start...but then again...we have the exact opposite type of that disorder, so maybe it's different.

Yeah. I have Type II bipolar disorder so my depressive episodes are horrible. To be honest it feels like I have another person inside of me...that's just..full of rage and hatred and sadness. One time I slept for a total of 22 hours...
