Damn these allergies...


“After obsessively Googling symptoms for four hours, I discovered 'obsessively Googling symptoms' is a symptom of hypochondria.” Stephen Colbert

I’m a bit of a hypochondriac – I imagine having every symptom I hear or read about.  That’s especially true these days: I Google Covid-19 symptoms every day to compare them to how I’m feeling. The real complication for most of us is that it’s now allergy season, when sniffles and sneezes are common, and when chills and chest congestion could happen at any time. While I practice social distancing religiously (no pun intended this week), I sometimes have to venture out to get groceries: that’s when the worrying really begins. Sometimes this awakens me at night, other times I fret that this ache or that pain could be the worst thing. This anxiety is always present and the people who are supposed to give us confidence just aren’t cutting it these days. These are good times to practice deep breathing and meditation, to remind ourselves of all the good and prudent things we’re doing, and to continue with these stay safe habits. Don’t let your mind run away with your confidence and common sense today.

Stephen Colbert (born 1964): American comedian, writer, producer, actor and television host.

  1. I have been married to my wife for 6 years and recently she broke up with me and it hurt me deeply when she told me to leave her alone and that she doesn't love me anymore when i was always faithful and honest to her. I tried all the ways to get her back buying her what she wants like I always did and she still left me heart broken and she even has a new boyfriend which destroyed me even more until a friend of mine from high school directed me to Dr Emu. This man changed my life completely. I followed everything he told me to do and my wife came back. I was stunned everything happened exactly like he told me. I had faith in everything he told me and everything was true. You can contact him via email: Emutemple@gmail.com He will help you in anything you need and quick to answer once you contact him through his whats-app number: +2347012841542
