I feel sick. I'm afraid something's wrong. Very nauseated. Chills. Headache. I'm not going over to that E.D. unless this gets a lot worse. Saw my PCP today. She seemed satisfied that I'm recovering ok. I wish she sent me for blood work. I just feel distressed. I'm so thirsty, but drinking anything nauseates me.

The hospital was like a circus. Don't want to go back there. Some I/V fluid might help me. I hate this.

I'm awfully sick. I think I need to go back to the E.D. That place is a madhouse.

I was in there 4 days. Got out May 4. Was coming along okay. Past 4 days - not so good.

I was nowheres near this sick a week ago.

I don't know what I'm waiting for. I'm too sick to not go, but I dread going into that place again.

My primary sent me for blood work. I'm hoping she'll call and tell me results. The labs might give clear indication of what I should do.

Not to stoke any fears, but did they give you a COVID test? More and more people I know seem to be getting it, even after avoiding it for two years and being vaccinated. The good news is that it's usually pretty mild (or at least bearable) and you get super-antibodies as a result.

Not yet, but I expect they will. We know my current distress is from a gut infection. Diverticulitis can lead to horrible complications. No evidence of that so far with me.

I got my booster shots, and I both mask and social distance. I know that all that is no guarantee.

I mean, I might have cancer, I think I have the right to be depressed.

I get discharged after supper. I live alone . . . now . . . (since May 30, 2020.) I wish I was going home to my sweetie. He would take care of me. And he would love me back to health, as he did during past illnesses.

Somehow I will manage. I was lucky to have had the many years we had. I still thank him every day.

I mainly need to not stay home alone so much. I mainly need to go and be with people. But I'm so afraid of COVID. I have scarred lungs. It is a mystery! No doctor can explain why, except to cite that I had pneumonia 20 years ago.

My girlfriend turned out to be a scammer. After I fell in love with her, she claimed to have been robbed while in a foreign country. She wanted all of my banking info. When I said it wasn't right, she said I didn't trust her. It was too fishy. I reported her to Google. I'm not receiving any more emails from her. Thank goodness.

Yep, those scammers are a particularly nasty kind, preying on people's emotions. Maybe you can get some "revenge" by watching the various videos of hackers turning the tables on them, even showing them their own webcam feeds and all. Aside from the comic relief, you can get good insights on how these shysters operate and never be taken in by them again.

I'm not sure my depression will ever be gone. There are rare, and I mean very rare moments where I've felt thankful to be alive. Since I was a child, all my memories are of crying and wishing I'd never been
born. I feel useless.... and I see no use for me to hang on. I have the means to end this, I just don't have the guts.
I made the stupid mistake of letting a man who has a gf get to my heart. He's not available, I didn't ever let my head even go there. I'm a stupid woman that falls for a kiss, for some attention, because I'm lonely for affection. Now it just hurts. Thought it was over with, then I feel like he feels sorry for me and turns me on again. It's torture, and it's just my fault. Friends that never text me first, and really they aren't friends. I don't know how to make it on my own, and I will be totally alone, looking for a place to live without enough money. I know the world has so many problems, and I should be thankful that I'm not homeless, YET, but it's coming.

I want relief from how sick I feel. I want escape. Continual nausea.

Thank you, Breaking Dawn.

They probably did, but I was so sick I can't remember. Yes, I'm hearing of people I know getting it recently. I still mask up when going out.

I have rounded a corner and am far less sick than I was.

I had to break the friendship with a really good friend last night. My best friend actually. He savaged me and the things he said I can forgive but not forget. I have too much self- love and self-respect to be treated like that. I am sad today. There is no going back from that. I will pick myself up and move on.
