How To Not Feel Disgusting While Ill
I've been ill lately and I know Klara has been too, so here are some things you can do to make yourself feel normal again.
- Get a haircut, or at least a wash and trim. This is the ultimate. My hair gets absolutely awful when I'm sick (it's been dry af but gets greasy way too easily) and so today I took myself down to the hairdressers and enjoyed having my hair washed, dried, cut and curled. Plus my hairdressers have massage chairs :)
- Talk to your friends. It sucks to not see people for a long time but just do it, even if you can't be bothered. This leads into...
- See people face to face (that you do not live with). The people you live with don't count, you'll have seen them already. I mean, get out and even if you just go for a coffee for half an hour, you'll enjoy seeing some people that you love. Also you can catch up properly!
- Go shopping. Treat yo'self <3
- If you've been sick/lost your appetite, buy some of your favourite food and actually be able to enjoy it once you're feeling better.
- 'Cry' - my good friend Klara Hughes suggested this, and I'm on board with this suggestion lol. Crying in the face of shitness is sometimes a good plan.
- Do a face pack. My skin also is disgusting when I'm sick, so this can make it feel soft and clear up imbalances.
- Sleep. I love sleeping so much.
- If you've put on weight, as I have, don't worry. As soon as you get back up and moving, you will lose it.
- Paint your nails, sing along super loud to songs, play the flute, or do whatever it is you love!
