Everyone around me is sick.. I'm surprised it took so long for me to catch it.
I think being sick with any kind of virus really increases my anxiety. On a daily basis I'm weak and tired and lightheaded just from anxiety alone, but when I'm sick, everything is so much worse! I can barely get up, I can't sleep, I can't eat, my dizziness is incredible. It absolutely feeds my health anxiety brain, it makes me think I have something worse than I actually do.
My question is: do you normally get super sore, tired, weak, and dizzy when you're sick? Does it make your anxiety go up?
