Nobody else really knows the feels.

15 Things Only Bad Immune Systems Understand
huffingtonpost.com


If you have a severe allergy, mono, autoimmune disorder & disease, bad genetics, or other hard-to-treat chronic conditions, you'll feel these on a spiritual level.


1. Going out with friends...

...On Friday, you'll be the top of your game: on everyone's vibe, making references and dancing and singing along to the radio. Yet on Saturday, you'll be despondent, moody, slow to get jokes, and make everyone around you think you're mad at them. It's really hard to juggle the disappointment of missing out and the disappointment of ruining everyone's fun by being the new potato creature of the group. And you don't have a good reason for anyone....

"Maybe I'm getting sick again..."

"Something's acting up."

"I'm so tired."

2. Ordering food...

...You don't feel well but you don't know what will make you feel better, so you just feel like a hassle for everyone else, including the cashier or barista taking your order.

3. Caffeine:

It's that one friend that you hang out with all the time but usually overdoes it and gets you in trouble later. But it feels good just to live.

4. Alcohol:

It will either mask the groggy, spacey, sick feeling and make it worse later, or it'll just make it worse now. But if everyone else is socially drinking and you're not feeling well, watching everyone being healthy can be worse. So you either call in the night early, or befriend your phone.

5. Medication:

There are so many prescriptions, supplements, and multivitamins in your cabinet, you could run a pharmacy on the black market.

"Yes, I took Vitamin C last night and this morning, and drank orange juice during every meal."

6. Your phone is your best friend.

You probably spend an above-average amount of time in the restroom, so your phone occupies you with music, articles, friends, and sharing your thoughts on the internet while you're secretly a potato.

7. You identify with potatoes.

You like to eat things made of potatoes, you have become a couch potato, and when it's a particularly bad day, the bags under your eyes resemble potatoes. And sometimes...you're a hot potato.

8. Beyoncé is the only cure.

With science and statistics, you've found that Beyoncé is the only solution to a majority of your problems.

9. Sweatpants, boxers, yoga pants...

...just no real pants please.

10. You always look tired.

"That's just the way my face looks,"

"Yea I have resting bitch face,"

"No, honestly, idk if I'm okay, sorry, don't freak out. I'm not dying...yet."

11. Killing the vibe...

You don't mean to, you're body is just mean, like, all the time.

12. 80/20...

...You're always like 80 percent healthy...max.

13. Dancing or angry rap...

...Not feeling well frequently breeds ANGST, which, if you have enough energy, is cured by dancing or angry rapping.

14. Healthy food. Exercise. Sleep.

"Yeah I've heard that, thanks!"
"Okay, I'll try that"
"Yup that's a good idea!"
"Sure thing, pal!"

15. Survival:

Surprised you've made it this far, so it justifies a Treat Yo Self whenever you want.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
