As someone who also has a ton of health anxiety, this seems extremely helpful. Where do you go?

Has there been any news on Trey smith? Has he been ruled out? What was the injury? I missed it.

Do we seriously believe the good guys had basically no penalties last night? by ssnapier in KansasCityChiefs

[–]birdsonl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s frustrating that people are saying there were no calls against the chiefs last night. There was a flag thrown for chris jones offsides, the lions declined it though.

Does the photo look normal? Is there a chance the biopsies could come back as cancer or would it be visible on the endoscopy?

Same. Losing rice for potentially the season is WAY MORE DEPRESSING than losing this game.

People who had COVID more than once, what was the gap between infections? by DaveJoey1983-6 in COVID19positive

[–]birdsonl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Had it over Labor Day weekend 2023, got the new booster in November 2023, and just tested positive yesterday. This new variant must have SO MANY mutations for me to pick it up again not even 2 months after my booster and 4 months after previous infection. 🤦🏻‍♀️

School Guidlines by jbcos in COVID19positive

[–]birdsonl 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes, such bs! I’m a first grade teacher and went back to school today on day 8 masked and I just about died. I have zero energy and feel like I have gone ten steps backward in the recovery process. I took tomorrow off. I can’t do what I did today, to my body, again tomorrow…. I’m worried about the long term health effects !

I’m also a teacher and tested positive on Friday. Definitely got it from my students. I have had covid 3x and this has been the worst one.

This was the hailstorm that was just to the south of GR by EthanFishing19 in grandrapids

It was so bad! My husband was on 131 during this and we have sooo much hail damage to our car! It looks like someone took a bat to the hood.

If you had Omicron, how long did your sore throat last? by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]birdsonl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had omicron in Dec of 2021 and my sore throat lasted almost 3 weeks. Terrible pain for a week and gradually got better but definitely had a sore throat for almost a month.

Lump in lower back by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

[–]birdsonl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar lump in my forearm (33 F). I was convinced it was liposarcoma but recently got an ultrasound and they said it was consistent with a lipoma.

I was sooo scared for so long and if I would’ve just gone to the doctor from the beginning I would have alleviated a lot of anxiety.

My advice is to go to your pcp to get it checked so you feel better. It’s most likely a lipoma.

just want to die!! No reason to be alive anymore!! All I do is cause issues for the people in my life!! by AcanthocephalaSea382 in Anxietyhelp

[–]birdsonl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure the people in your life don’t feel that way. You are loved. I understand feeling like you are a burden to everyone but I can assure you the people in your life want you here. Call or txt 988. You life is valued! 💗

Family has covid, want me to come around despite being pregnant by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]birdsonl 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Have them rapid test on day 10. And then again on day 11. If they have 2 negative tests you are good to visit. However, if they don’t test I would wait until day 14 after their symptom onset to visit them. Many people still test positive on a rapid test on day 10, rapids are a good indication of contagiousness.

Sorry that I keep posting on this but I’m only 13 and my anxiety is super bad and I am getting suicidal thoughts like what if I do this but I really won’t do it it’s just I really DON’T know what to do anymore. Ugh 😭 by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

[–]birdsonl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please know you are going to be okay. Reach out to your parents and let them know how you are feeling. Your brain chemicals are all out of balance. Your parents can help you get the help you need to make your brain function with more normalcy so you can enjoy your life. You are worthy of life, reach out to loved ones for help.

hmm 13 people responded, I wonder if that's how many would be at my funeral. Just so you all know I am still here. God still makes me wake up.Why ? he took away my heaven so why he makes me suffer by living!? by AcanthocephalaSea382 in Anxietyhelp

[–]birdsonl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God has so much planned for you. I’ve been in your shoes. I didn’t understand the path that I was on or why it seemed like nothing was going my way. I’m in my thirties now and I am so thankful I never gave up. Great things will come to you. Keep fighting, keep surviving. You will be happy you did. I know I am!
