may or may not be sick, not so sure yet (potential TMI warning)

So about an hour or two ago I was playing some video games and what not when all of the sudden I start to feel a bit fatigued (mostly in my face). I take a sip of water and when I swallow, it hurt a bit. Now these could all be symptoms of anything, but I always think of the worst.

I had band rehearsal tonight, so I decided to not pay much attention to those “symptoms” I had and decided to go to rehearsal anyway. An hour into rehearsal (out of the hour and a half time we spend together) my body feels more fatigued and because of me playing my instrument, my nausea got worse (I play the saxophone, and anytime I try and blow into it, it feels the same way as if I’m trying to vomit or about to vomit). Right now I’m in the bathroom (not trying to force myself to get sick - my stomach feels fine and I know I’m not gonna be sick), and I’m about to go and get me either a snack or a small meal (I haven’t eaten an actual meal since noon, all I had when I came home from school was an orange and some lays chips).

P.S (here’s the TMI): I checked my period tracking app and it says I’m supposed to be starting soon, so I’m also kinda thinking that could be it as well.

Anyway, if yall have any idea as to what could be wrong with me rn or any advice (or whatever else), pls leave a comment.

Have a good day/night.

update from my last post (if you haven’t seen it, go look it up on my profile)

as I said, I got into a little argument with someone and I got worked up because of it. at first I felt sick to my stomach but eventually it all went away. until now.

now, my stomach won’t stop growling and I cannot fall asleep (even though I’m lowkey exhausted). I don’t feel nauseous what so ever, but my anxiety keeps acting up and my body keeps convincing me that I’m going to be sick (therefore, the anxiety stays up and so do I).

I’m not really sure what to do, it all keeps coming in and out and I really need the sleep (I have a family dinner tomorrow around noon, it’s currently midnight actually).

If yall have any advice or anything at all, pls leave a comment

again thank you for reading my post(s) and have a great day/night.

I’m actually dying over here help

So I just got done having a semi argument with this guy and what he was saying kept making me sick to my stomach, so I told him have a nice day/night and I blocked him. However, that sick feeling in my stomach has continued to grow worse and I cannot get my mind off of it. My stomach doesn’t hurt or anything (and by sick to my stomach I’m talking about basic nausea, that sensation in my throat and my cheeks). It’s been going on for about 30 minutes or so, and my anxiety has gotten worse and worse thanks to it. I’m currently trying to distract myself by playing some video games and what not (luckily as I’m writing this post I’m starting to feel a bit better), but yea.

I also ate quite a bit today (mostly junk ofc), so that makes it worse. I’m honestly not sure what else to do besides panic and pray I won’t get sick. Does anyone have any tips or anything I should do? (Pls comment if you do)

anyway have a good day/night, and thank you for reading my post.

for starters, I’ve had a similar situation happen to me and it was really rough, but eventually I calmed myself down and everything was better.

The situation being that I over ate a bit today. I have an issue with overeating a lot, so it just makes everything worse. However, I have drank more than I ate (not like drank as in I was drinking alcohol, but I’ve been drinking a lot of sugary/energy drinks lately). On top of drinking a lot of whatever, I have ate quite a bit. Therefore, I feel nauseous now I can’t sleep (I almost fell asleep but you know).

I just want to go to sleep, I’ve had a long day today and I have more stuff to tend to again tomorrow. If anyone has any advice/support, please leave a comment

(P.S: sorry my post is a hot mess, I’m in panic right now and my ability of being able to explain things isn’t the best)

have a great day/night

So I made the mistake of eating a lot of junk food today (or eating too fast, whatever), per usual. Around 7pm (CDT, I’m not a big fan of time zones), I start to feel nauseous. I try and take a deep breath and tell myself “it’s just anxiety and what not, you’ll be fine”. 10pm rolls around (which is when I normally go to bed), and I’m on the phone with my friend. I hang up on them because my phone was almost dead anyway and so I told them I would be back in a moment (I had let my phone charge while I got ready for bed). I finally lay down and bed and unplug my phone and noticed that they were offline at that point and asleep, so I decided to join a voice chat with my boyfriend. My boyfriend was muted for a bit but I didn’t really mind. I feel half asleep with one headphone in and I hear my boyfriend and some girl he’s best friends with talking (they’ve known eachother for over a year now and I trust her - plus this voice chat is in a discord server with us and his friends and what not), so that’s when my body threw me back up and I decided to unmute myself and join the conversation (I was wide awake again and couldn’t get back down to dreamland so why not). That’s whenever my body decides to torture me 6 ways to Sunday. I have unbearable nausea, a small stomach ache, and a panic attack. Therefore, I decide to rush to the bathroom. Great news is, I didn’t end up sick. However, I still felt that sensation in my throat (yall should know what I’m talking about…it’s fucking hell). My stomach? Fine. It was fine. I ALWAYS get that nauseating sensation in my throat while my stomach is completely fine and chill. I hate it.

Anyway, that’s what’s happening rn, and I’m in the bathroom as I’m writing this (I feel a bit better at this point but I still feel like shit). If yall have any advice for me or maybe some reassurance..or maybe even some remedies for me to test out, pls comment down below.

I’m really hoping to get back to bed, I have school tomorrow and it’s gonna be hell.

(P.S: if you’ve made it this far, thank you for reading my long ass post and have a wonderful day/night)

For the longest time, I’ve always HATED oranges. The smell, the taste, even the color (depending on the shade). My stepdad just recently went on a trip to Florida for a week and he collected a ton of oranges and even got an orange tree to plant. I decided to try one of the oranges since I brought one to school for my friend. I loved it. The sweetness was on point, and the texture was okay as well. The issue is whenever I came home, I had another orange. Now you may be thinking, “well then what went wrong?”. The orange I ate (I only ate 3 slices mind you) apparently was going bad. Since I’m new to eating oranges (now it sounds like I’m gatekeeping oranges or whatever lmao), I honestly thought it being sour was normal. I had my mum try a slice, and that’s when I found out it might be going bad. She threw the rest away and i immediately started panicking (because I don’t want to get sick, duh).

So yea I’m in need of some advice/reassurance. I’m almost certain I’ll be fine, considering all the other aspects of the orange were normal, and I feel physically fine. It’s just that worry that won’t crawl out of my ass.

(and P.S: if I somehow end up sick, do yall have any advice as to what to do in that situation? like as far as comfort wise

- please comment if you do)

have a great day/night and thanks for reading my post
