All,

I'm hoping death finds me today.

What's up with you?

Well I for one, am not hoping death finds you today!

I'm on stomach flu watch. It appears that my nephew is spreading his virus around and now my brother-in-law and niece are down with it. I'm extra anxious and praying it doesn't hit anyone in our house. I'll probably be hyper aware and flipped out all week. I also plan on staying faaaaaaar away from my mom and her house for quite awhile.

Park,

How long does it take to manifest? I'd think you would have gotten it by now if you were going to.

I'm not positive. I saw them in Thursday, the baby got sick on Friday, my brother-in-law got sick last night and apparently this morning my niece isn't feeling well. I think I'll have to keep an eye out for a couple more days, but I'm hoping we're not gonna get it. I've got my stash of Saltines and Gatorade and Pedilyte just in case.

Hi everyone!!
John I also hope that death does not find you!!

Park I'm hoping you and your family do not catch the stomach flu! I understand the anxiety about being sick!

This weekend was actually really good!! I didn't do much but anxiety was low. I actually ate some food that I was scared to eat but paying for it today with heartburn.

Getting ready to head to the store. Elf on the shelf starts tomorrow and my daughters elf leaves her presents everyday until Christmas!!! 😩
Hope you all have a great Sunday!! Steelers and walking dead on today!!! Yeah!!!!

Sounds like you have a good day ahead, Bambi!

I'm going to try something that I saw S.C. Posted on another thread. Instead of worrying about the possibility of stomach flu all day, I'm just going to tell myself it's not time to worry about that right now. If I sit and worry about stomach flu, even though I may never get it, I'll just ruin my whole week.

Smooth, feel better!

Park, glad you're not going to let the fear of the flu get to you! When someone around me get sick, I try to eat light for the next couple of days until I'm out of the woods. :)

Bambi, glad you had a good weekend!

I spent most of my weekend celebrating the holiday and decorating the house. Today we will be decorating outside, which ended up working out really well because it is actually very mild out. I had a terrible ocular migraine yesterday, so I had to take a two hour nap in the middle of the day:( But rebounded nicely from it. I have had a tough time falling asleep lately though. I've been staying awake until like 1:00 am. No anxiety though, just not tired. Haven't stayed up this late since before this anxious bout.

I'm finally home from the holiday. Putting up the tree and watching football. My health anxiety has me bugging about heart problems but im keeping busy and grinding it out.

John, I hope it doesn't find you for a loooonnnggg time... You are too young for it.

I am struggling a bit digestive issues today and that weird achy feeling in between my shoulder blades. It's nothing new, I got that sensation before coming and going. But I still can't help but get anxious over it.

This is something to list down for my next meeting with my therapist, since she asked me what are you afraid of?
Having symptoms is irritating me actually. Whatever that sensation is, I don't like having bodily sensations.
Yeah, yeah *writes it down*

Thanks, all.

Inci, that shoulderblade pain stinks.

I lived.

Thank God, John!

I'm ending my night on a swear word kind of note. My stomach feels yucky, my anxiety is outrageous and I'm still living in fear of catching the stomach flu that I was recently exposed to.

Plus, I hate Sunday nights because my husband goes back to work on Mondays and in lonely at home with my little guy during the week.

Anyway. I'll be here all day tomorrow. Ha. Man that seems sad.

Park,

Haven't thanked God yet. :P

Go poop out the stomach pain, anxiety, and potential stomach flu! In all seriousness, I'm sorry you feel bad. Where do you go from here with your stomach?

Loneliness is crippling.

I dread work. It's always brutal after a holiday. I would skip, but that's no good.

I will be on when I can. Try not to be in here too much, darling.

I'm hoping to hear from the GI doctor tomorrow, but my appointment isn't until 12/18. Bummer.

Lonliness does suck, but that's why I like it here. A little less lonely during the day.

Sigh. I'm gonna go snack on some mint tums.

Park,

The GI docs here are so busy. 😩

I'm apprehensive to sign in here on my work computer. I type really fast, though.

Poor thing. Not too many. You'll ruin your breakfast. 😝

Went to work today- slight panic and anxiety as it was really busy again.
John, tell that time to piss by at work! (A wise person once told me that hehe)
Posted 12/1/2014 4:55 AM (GMT 0)
Me? Wise? Hehe

Glad you made it through.
