Title: Have you ever been so upset you became physically ill?
Post by: Sam on September 19, 2009, 03:36:32 PM
After 4 weeks of being gone from home and missing pretty much solely my best friend, my cat Dusty, I found out today he's been missing for the past week. He's gone. I was so excited to see him next week, too. I called my mom to ask my bank account routing number and instead she tells me this. And instead of getting visibly upset I held it in because there were people over. I hang up on her immediately because I didn't want to hear about it.

Little by little I felt worse and worse, until I ended up vomiting in the bathroom about 5 minutes later.

Today has not been a good day.

I get acne breakouts and severe dandruff.

Other symptoms that occur less often are tightening of the throat and panic attacks that come out of no where.

Eh, depends what you see as physical illness.

I don't handle stress well. The actual reaction known as stress, I mean. That tension you feel in your body, as if all of your muscles were contracted, I hate it.

Back in my teenage days, I could have spasms and the sort.

my body sort of stopped working. you know how they say that old people die of grief when their spouse dies? im guessing something like that was going on because it sort of felt like my body was slowly shutting down.

Most diseases are psychologically induced, so probably.

I forced myself to be sick to get out of a recital once. n_u

Good luck with your cat! He'll show up.

Yeah, I've gotten pretty fucked up from panic attacks, and the stress of daily life and the lack of sleep sap my strength to a point of severe exhaustion. I've never thrown up because of it, but I've felt hollow and alone and I felt sensation shutting down from my fingers to emotions and there was one time I could barely hold in the screaming.

Fuck destiny, really.

Yes actually. A few days ago I was so upset and depressed I actually couldn't get out out of bed, and felt like I was very sick.

To everyone hoping my cat will be found, thanks.. but he won't. Cats go 'missing' all the time in my area. Coyotes.

I'm so fucking depressed over this. Dusty was the only thing about home I really loved and REALLY missed. I don't know what to do with myself anymore. I've been waiting for so long for the chance to go back home to see him, now I never want to go home again. God. I have said so many times that "I don't know what I'd do without Dusty." and now I really don't.

...whatever. I don't think people are comprehending how upset I am over this. In fact, I know they aren't. When someone's best friend passes away, you don't give them a shitty internet reference. He's making a joke about something I'm nearly suicidal over. I'm obviously not okay with that.

I really don't connect with my cats that way...I don't connect with much of anything...but I think I can understand.

I'm really sorry, Sam.
Title: Re: Have you ever been so upset you became physically ill?
Post by: Samus Aran on September 21, 2009, 08:09:50 PM
Yeah I can't quite relate to someone connecting that deeply with a cat either. I'm pretty sure Hiro can't either. So it's only natural to not realize how huge of a deal this is...especially since you didn't actually say he passed away in the first place. You just said he went missing. We don't assume "missing" to equal death.

But we are sorry, in any case.

Yup, normally when I'm very upset I'll feel exhausted, get headaches, and an upset stomach.
