How do you guys handle being sick?

I don't mean like just seasonal allergies or a cold (however if that's what ails you, go for it), I mean anything with a fever or can't be easily remedied. Because I'm going through something rn and I feel like such a wimp. In my day to day, I can handle my chronic illness like a champ. But the moment I get sick I'm done. Nothing feels right, everything bothers, my routine is out the window, all my safe foods are no longer safe, half of my icks are there.

My body isn't even my body anymore and I'm constantly writhing around bc I can't settle. And yet I'll watch other people just lay there and be unhappy and miserable but at least they're handling it. How do you handle being sick?
