13 Reasons Why Having The Flu Is The Worst
It sucks even harder than breakups or root canals.
1. All of a sudden nobody wants to go near you.
Which is entirely reasonable, considering that epidemics and pandemics are legitimately serious things.
2. And yet they’re all totally willing to lecture you for not getting a flu shot.
Even if you already did!
4. You’re trapped inside your apartment*.
*house/ dorm room/ hovel/ palace/ doesn’t matter where because no matter where it is, you will QUICKLY START TO LOATHE ITS VERY WALLS.
5. Your mom gets disproportionately worried about you from three states away.
And all you want is for her to make you macaroni and scratch your back :(((
6. You can’t booty call.
Unless you’re an evil demon who cares naught for the suffering of others.
7. Your head throbs like some terrible low-rent dubstep song whenever you try to think.
8. Your lips are so dry they feel like sandpaper.
No matter how much water you chug.
9. You sound like a monster or a witch whenever you try to talk.
10. All those “sick day” plans you had to hang out and watch TV are shot to hell by the fact that sitting up and looking at things feels like knives in your brain.
11. It’s all too easy to stumble across WebMD and start overdiagnosing yourself.
13. You start to actually miss going to work/ school/ whatever you generally do with your day.
At least your coworkers and classmaters are actual real humans you can interact with, rather than the dead Christmas tree you should have thrown out three weeks ago.
But don’t despair! You’ll be over it before you know it.
Ready to take on the world.

Chefcammie 4 months agoI just recently recovered from having the flu and Strep throat at the same time! I literally thought I was gonna die. The. The cabin fever set in and I thought I was gonna die a mad woman. I am finally feeling better and it’s three weeks later! To anyone out there that is sick with the flu I wish you a speedy recovery! Also if you do in fact get the flu, once you get better you should get a flu shot because there are four strains this year

shrinkage 4 months agoDon’t be a selfish douchebag. Get a flu shot.
I don’t want to hear these stupid reasons you don’t. they’re false:
- I got the flu from the shot. NO YOU DIDN’T.
- I never get the flu, so I don’t need the shot. YOU MAY HAVE NEVER GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT. DO YOU REALLY NEED THAT SEATBELT?
- I won’t get the flu, and if I do I’ll just stay home. YOU SHED THE VIRUS TWO DAYS BEFORE FEELING SYMPTOMS. WAY TO GO, ASSWIPE. INFECT US ALL BEFORE YOU KNOW IT. -

The first time I contracted any kind of flu…it ended up being swine flu. That was sick hell! Never been that sick before in my entire life! It suuuuuuuked. I wanted to cry everytime i had to go to the bathroom, my body was on fire, # 10 described my head, got dizzy everytime I stood up, and was weak as heck. I basically laid in the bed 24/7, drank lots of gatorade, and fruit juice, until I could sit up on the sofa after about a week. It was so bad, I wished I was well and at work. That’s bad. Hope I never, ever, ever, ever get anything with flu in it again.

olivejuice520 4 months agoI had the exact same experience with The Oink… it was horrible. It took me weeks to feel back to normal. It’s why I get a flu shot the first week they are available. Sorry you had to go through that!
