Can ya guess my favorite number?

I actually might have Corona. I finally was able to find somewhere that's testing yesterday after 5 days of being sick. I've had all the symptoms (just not at the same time); fever, cough, headache, and as of yesterday morning shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest so I spent hours on the phone calling around to ask if places test. No ERs local to me are testing for it. And they're all turning away people with flu like symptoms. I hadn't left my house in 5 days but I finally found a place an hour away so I got in my car and went there. They tested me for flu and pneumonia to rule those out and I came back as not having those, so finally they did a swap for Covid-19. But get this.....I won't know results for 5-7 days because I'm not considered a "priority" since I don't have all the symptoms at once. Nevermind that I have been having difficulty breathing all day. And they could only send it for private testing. So I have to self quarantine for 5-7 days or at least until I hear the results. It's currently 4:40am and I haven't slept much because I keep having shallow breaths and it's waking me up.

I'm only 25 but have many health issues and the other person living in my home works at a prison (aka is exposed to a ton). Other person also won't self quarantine and is going to a wedding on Friday. He even left town for it.

There's only been around 200 tests even done in my entire county of 250k residents and of those they've found 7 positives (so far). We ain't got this under control at all.

@Eruca:
Thank ya. I shall take your thumbs and right middle finger for my collection.

@vengeance: Thank you so much!

I'll have you know that coffee works as the perfect replacement for sleep!

What is sleep anyways? Pfft, who needs it. I'm not crying. These are tears of joy from lack of sleep!

Maybe you should nap? It's not got to drive when tired!

And my sleep schedule is currently all kinds of screwed up because I just got over being sick and sleeping all day. >.<

It goes as well as it can at 2:30am. Are ya'll late night dwellers as well?

As someone with ADHD, so much THIS. My own father is one of those "everyone has anxiety" or "everyone is ocd" followed by saying we all have to deal with it so he/she/they can get over it too. The most ironic part being that I'm pretty sure my father has ADHD as well based off many similar habits and ticks we have. Of course, he would never get tested for such issues though.

ADHD is actually something I have struggled with for years, long before I even knew what it was. I was that overactive female, the one people say ADHD doesn't usually manifest as. I was that can talk for hours straight without breaking. I was that constantly being told to shut up. I was that yelling without realizing. I was that speaking a mile a minute little kid. And I was that "smart kid who is just lazy and not living up to their potential". I jumped from hobby to hobby because I got so bored so quickly. I had to be doing multiple things at once or nothing at all. I was so bored of highschool that I graduated highschool in a single year because I hyperfocused for months on school work. And all of this was before I even knew what ADHD was. It wasn't until I met my current boyfriend that it all made sense. He has a mild form of ADHD but he had mostly grown out of it as he matured. Mine only got worse into my adulthood. He finally sat me down one day and explained ADHD and so freaking much started making sense to me. I got it confirmed by a professional who knew what they were doing. Finally my constantly racing thoughts and way of doing things was making sense. There really was a method to my madness. And that last part happened recently. I'm still learning to manage. The first time I ever took medication for ADHD, I actually started crying because my racing thoughts were gone. That constant feeling of needing to do something and either always doing something or never being able to do a thing, it was gone. It's a hard change to get used to but a welcome one. So people who have no idea what it's like to live with that constant feeling of needing to go, of knowing that you need to do a simple task but you just can't, of having to say everything that's on your mind, those people really tick me off when they downplay it.

I'm just gonna roll in here and day hello. So hello.

@Totalanimefan:
