Day 3 of COVID, and I'm feeling a lot better already.

I'm still coughing and it still hurts, but the headache is gone and I can drink water without it feeling like I'm swallowing razor blades.

I was also so disoriented yesterday that I had to re-type every third word or so, because it would legit look like a keysmash. I'm back to normal on that front.

I've still got a few days of being sick ahead of me, but it really is night and day how decent I feel today compared to yesterday and the day before.

#it might seem messed up to say but covid isn't even the sickest I've ever been. i had influenza once and it dehydrated me so much #that I legit had to stay in a hospital for four or so days. i was really messed up about hydration back then whereas ive had a lot of water #that being said - I think the reason I'm handling covid as well as I am is because I have *everything* set up to run from my bed #i have eight full bottles of water next to my bed. i have a laptop set up with a charging cord for my phone #I've been slipping in and out of consciousness for the past few days and resting as often as I can #influenza fucked me up so much because I didn't know how to take care of myself. even with covid I'm a lot better abt that sort of thing
