Is it normal to feel bored and not feel like doing anything when your sick?

Question

I have the stomach flu for a week and dont feel like doing anything the past week. Im bored and feel different. Im 16 also

Answer 1

You bet! Your body is trying to fight off an infection, most of its resources are going towards that. The only thing you can do is get as much rest as you can drink lots of fluids and try to eat right. You're only 16. You'll be fine.

One of the best things you can do is stay positive. Your recovery will be that much faster. This is a FACT. Try to keep your mind busy. Laughter actually is the best medicine. Try the humour videos on YouTube. Funny stuff.

Hope you feel better soon:)

Answer 2

Of course this is normal. When you are sick your body is tired and wants to rest. But since you haven't done anything you are feeling bored. Just do little things until you feel completely better....watch tv, go on computer, take a warm shower, listen to music....and so on.
