Feeling down. Supportive words please.

[Dolphin80]

I’m feeling down. Had a bad virus, haven’t been able to shower yet since my fever over the weekend due to fatigue. Energy is slightly more today. But still very fatigued making me feel down. I’m scared to shower as my energy is so low. Why is my energy so low after fever gone? I don’t know. Has me down. ☹️ Please send me supportive words. Please and thank you!

If you have had a viral infection they can make us feel washed out and very low. This should pass given time

This time of year seems to make us pick up various bugs etc, all we can do is allow ourselves to become stronger. I have one bad habit a large Malt Whiskey and warm milk before bed may help you move on so stop worrying you will feel better soon

Thank you!!

Wow , minus the fever I’ve had an infection (sinus) ..here. I’m lethargic afterwards too but at work, luckily I like this job :/ but !!! The shower will actually do you some good ! Take a nice shower , a warm one leaning towards hot...let the steam hit you and the water massage you and relax. Add lavender , that smell onto the mix if you can ! Been dragging myself to shower & it is quite the pick-me-up .

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

Oh ok. Thank you. Yeh the virus really knocked me down unfortunately. Thank you.

[hippieebbbz09 in reply to Dolphin80]

It truly sucks ! But, you’ll be better. Don’t fear the shower! Embrace that cleansing water haha. 💚 of course!

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

I like my job. I want to go to work. Just so lethargic.

[hippieebbbz09 in reply to Dolphin80]

I’ve took like two naps at my desk but near my laptop, to seem like I’m productive lol

[hippieebbbz09 in reply to Dolphin80]

Go when you are able ! Totally understand

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

I’m kinda scared of taking a shower after being so weak but I think it’ll do me good too. What do you recommend me tell myself regarding the anxiety I have towards taking a shower? I’m all alone. My mind thinks something might happen to me if I take a shower but I know that’s just anxiety talking.

[hippieebbbz09 in reply to Dolphin80]

Maybe chant “ this water will help me , it will relax me. Keep chanting that IN the shower too. Then you don’t even have to be in there long, get your favorite robe & dry off and stay in your robe and relax.

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

Ok I’ll try that. I’ll really try. I have to wash my hair too which takes me longer. Thank u!!

[hippieebbbz09 in reply to Dolphin80]

Yes just remember that chant, and also envision how great you’ll feel after & how clean you’ll be , etc !

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

Ok great idea!

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

The virus really knocked me down.

[hippieebbbz09 in reply to Dolphin80]

[Dolphin80 in reply to hippieebbbz09]

Thank u. Took a shower and feeling better. But having heart palpitations but I’ve been living with them a long time. I think virus brought them back.
