Need some advice

[FamicomRetroGamer]

I haven't been feeling alright the past few days, so, should I go for a check-up?

I noticed that I eat a lot and still I'm slim not near to fat.

Btw, I'd rather be drunk than be sick like right now. Ugh, being sick sucks.

I noticed that I eat a lot and still I'm slim

I've been like that my whole life and it'll probably stay with me for the rest of my days. Nothing wrong with that.
I eat like a pig (I love unhealthy stuff, the more deep fried lard in it the better) and it doesn't change my skinny self a bit.

One thing I can say from personal experience, though, is check up on your cholesterol and all that stuff. Just because you're skinny it doesn't mean that your arteries can't get like Homer Simpson's.

I eat things like Fried oreos, and onion rings and I never feel sick and am still skinny myself. I always do feel down and depressed and have felt that way for many years, and I never needed to go to a doctor, but take my advice with a grain of salt and get yourself checked out if you feel any worse.

Is your doctor any good? My doctor's great, so my first reaction is to go for that check-up, but if your doctor is mediocre you might just want to wait a while and see if you get better, could just be a virus that'll go away.

My health has been totally insane lately, recently my appetite has disappeared and I've been losing like 3-5 pounds a week despite not being able to do much more than occasionally go to another room (due to another, perhaps unrelated, illness). And like you guys I'm already skinny, so it's not like I can afford to lose the weight.

Also, nenson, if your diet is bad it can affect your mood. Of course I don't know what your situation is like, but it's something to keep in mind. I worked to improve my diet a while back and it really did make me feel better and less depressed.

Unless you have some major illness, a doctor isn't going to help you out. You'll at best just be wasting your money. Even if you did have a major illness, at your age, you'll need all the luck you can get. Feeling 'not right' over the course of a few days is no big deal.

At your age, it's normal to be able to eat anything and everything and feel great and/or be skinny. That's your body's generous usage of enzymes and growth metabolic rate at work. You'll notice a difference beginning at 26-28, when you'll find out you won't be able to eat as much without gaining weight and you won't recover as quickly from workouts or injuries. Unless you're feeling light-headed, sick, or incredibly tired over the course of weeks and weeks, you probably just have a virus.

I'm constipated and my head hurts like hell.

I drank some hot chocolate milk it was nice for a little while and then all came back.

Looks like I won't be going to college tomorrow, don't want to infect anyone nor am I in a good condition.

This started last week wed-thurs but it just got worse.

Worst thing is that I can't sleep fine, god dammit, I'll have to do something about this.

Hmm you might want to go just incase for a check up especially if you haven't gone for a while. I just got myself checked last month and the doc said I am 100 percent healthy yay! Better be sure than sorry.

Could be a vitamin deficiency... try a multivitamin, it can't hurt.

But I'm no doctor. You should definitely see a professional some time soon.

[FamicomRetroGamer]

I'm fine now.

Just still a bit constipated but nothing to worry about.
