    I'm currently fighting a nasty cold, and my head is a bit loopy. (Although, it's probably always loopy.)

    So, I figured I'd ask what makes all of you feel better?

    For me it's halls cough drops, nyquil, water.

    A few good nostalgic movies, lots of reading.

    And wonderful cat-naps. ^..^

    I always use Chicken Noodle Soup, NyQuil, and Sprite (Well Vernors because I'm from Michigan, but Sprite works fine)

    Cuddling with my pets always makes me feel better too :slight_smile:

    little ball of fur
    :lol:

    No but seriously if I'm sick the first thing I do is take some cold and flu medicine. No need to be a hero. I like watching tv, reading, listening to music, texting, and just resting in general

    Oh yes, the chicken noodle soup, Nyquil, and my kitty cat curled up next to me while I try to sleep it off. The kitty doesn't seem to mind how long it takes .... she's just happy to be next to me.

    Not out at all
    Pretty much having a good book to read or movie to watch, and sleeping when not reading or watching a movie.

    I don't take any medications, because they never do anything for me. Usually don't eat when I'm sick either, because even if it's just a cold, I ache too much to lift a spoon or fork numerous times.

    I like to drink lemonade and watch films. I like to imagine lemon does something when I have a cold and a sore throat

    Definitely soft kitty.


    But really, mostly I just like that I get to slack off a bit and just be by myself for a while.

    I misread the title as "What perks up your stick?" :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Lots of Vitamin C. Sleep is your friend, too.
