I read on Sunday the flu was dying down and getting better. Now they are saying it’s going to be bad until April. It’s really anxiety provoking for me. My stomach is in knots and I’ve lost 5 pounds since Friday. I’m really worried. My mom had surgery a few weeks ago. She’s still really tired and achy from it. I’ve also read people are dying even with the flu shot if they are older and have other issues.

I am dreading my doctors appointment on Saturday. I told my mom to just drop me off and I’d text her when I got into the exam room. I’ll grab a mask as soon as I get in there.

Therapist is not making things better. She said “well, I hope you don’t get it.” In a kind of condescending way.
