Finally Friday
I started getting a sore throat yesterday and a slight cough but dont think its the virus. I have no fever.
Probably me just making myself sick. Hypochondria kicks in. I havent really been anywhere to be exposed. Boss is working from home today so ill be holding the fort down at work.
I think I am going to start looking for a place to live. I think its best for me to be out on my own. I think i need time to figure out what I want.

Take it easy and hope you find clarity.
Personally, I believe stress aches are as real on the physical level as they are on the psychic level. Proof available, though hotly debated. I didn't **ask** for the mental health issues generating my stress aches any more than a baby asks for a cleft palate. "Hypochondria" ain't among the official dx'es available on my psycho dx smorgasbord, not even on my most psychosomatic of days. My med and psych pros even agree on this small portion of my psycho smorgasbord. I still find myself in shock when my experts agree with one another.
Steadying support while you move ahead, stress aches and all. You can do this, my healing warrior. Easy does it. Itsy bitsy baby steps.
I hear that some people don't show symptoms so it might be a good idea to get yourself tested just the same. Insurances will pay for it without charging a deductible or co pay but you can check first to be sure.
