I look like a mess when I get sick!

My husband and family would teach me that I look like a good girl whenever I'm sick. I guess it's the fragility of the look plus the doe-eyed look whenever I feel so vulnerable does the trick, lol! I guess looking bad is more of because we feel bad. It's just a reflection of how lousy we feel. And I think we tend to care more on feeling better than our looks, but I know some people who just can't wake up without putting on make up despite the fact that they are burning with fever.

of course not. but when I was confined in the hospital I brought my lipstick with me, aside from the chapping lips I didn't like my visitors to see pale lips too as if I was in a serious condition.

I was sick recently, I had a heavy cold which made me feel awful. I think I can recall working hard to look as good and feel as comfortable as possible, because I already feel awful. So, I think I kept very clean; wore light clothing (I hate heavy clothes); shaved; tried to eat OK...of course I only had a cold, if I was a good deal sicker I may not have been so scrupulous in keeping up appearances. But I never like to let myself go, even if I don't have to go anywhere. And even when I'm sick. That said, I didn't look that great! My hair is pretty long right now, and I've been meaning to get it cut, but that's not been possible, and of course, I've not washed it for a goodly amount of time either, and the cold simply extended that time. And my eyes must have looked red-rimmed and heavy with cold. When you're sick, you hever look your best, to say the least!

I am sick right now. However I am at work too. I will dressed properly so that I do not look sick. When I do not look sick, I felt better. Some positive attitude at play. I normally try to forget that I am sick by watching funny cartoons and stay happy. Take medication, drink plenty of water and rest. I hope I can get well very soon because next week I will have quite a number of task to do. I also do not want to spread my flu to others.

I look horrible when I am sick. I tend to sleep on the bed with boxes of tissues. My wife will buy me porridge and asked me to eat, later take medication. At times she will grumble because she said I will spread to her. So, an apple a day - may we stay healthy everyday!

When I am sick, I generally don't care. No one can judge you then! However, sometimes when I am on the "road to recovery", I find that showering and changing into still comfortable, but nicer clothes helps me feel better. When I have to go out for medicine, I just bundle up my mess and don't worry...after all, if I am getting medicine, people should know why I look like a mess ;)

Hi friend, I think everyone doesn't really look good when we are sick. I myself doesn't really care about my looks when I'm sick. Specially when I'm really feeling very bad, that I can't even stand on my own feet. I can't think of how I look when I feel very bad. All I can think of is how I feel and when will I get better. The most important thing I want when I am sick is to really get better.
