Hello, I haven’t been on here for awhile but I’m having a rough time and my therapist isn’t available and I just need to get it out of my mind and maybe have someone else rationalize what’s really happening. Friday night I came down very quickly with body aches, chills, the shakes, a fever, and a headache. My throat started bothering me yesterday morning. Just scratchy but it’s fine today. No more headache. My fever broke Friday morning around 4am. My body aches have finally left this morning too. I’ve been sneezing today and hacking up dark yellow mucus. Blowing my nose a lot. I talked to my doctor and he just said that it could be flu, cold, Covid, or a number of other viruses out there and said if I wanted a test he could order me one. I feel more anxious after that. I can still smell and taste things.
The evidence is obviously there that I’m improving but for some reason, anxiety, I’m panicked that out of nowhere I’ll take a turn for the worse and it’ll go down hill.
