As My First Post On This Hellsite...

As my first post on this hellsite...

I invite you to think about cold symptoms that wake the sickie up.

Congestion so bad that the effort to breathe jerks them out of a sound sleep, making them shift positions with a quiet, thick sniffle that lets almost no air in and does nothing for the stuffiness.

Wet coughs that crackle in their chests and leave them gasping and fumbling for the water glass they left there for just such an occasion, spluttering a bit because they can’t stop coughing long enough to actually take a proper sip.

Sneezing. Maybe that’s not what woke them up, but now that they’re awake, they can’t stop. Slow building fits that make their breath shiver, and they agonize over every moment that the next sneeze doesn’t come. When it finally stops, they’re more exhausted than they were before, and can barely summon the energy to swipe the cuff of their sleep shirt against their nose before rolling over to try and sleep before this all happens again.

Fevers that turn their dreams sour and make them shake with chills, or feel so hot that their immediate thought is to fling all the sweat-dampened covers off. And maybe crawl out of those disgusting pyjamas that were fresh from the wash when they put them on three hours ago. Their head spins, and the world swims in and out of focus when they peer blearily around to make sure that the lurking danger from their nightmare isn’t actually hiding in the corner of their room.

Think about those cold symptoms that you just can’t sleep through.

It’s really cute when a cold is going around one particular social group and it becomes local gossip. It becomes small talk to discuss who caught it from who, who’s feeling better and who isn’t.

You know what’s underrated? A lack of appetite, even if the sick character only has a cold
