@nagitoekogaeda depends on the sick
high, debilitating fevers? yes, absolutely. it's almost like being drunk, you end up in some weird semi-dream state
@bitterblossom oh no wonder I kept getting lost in weird delusions that didn’t make sense
Then I spilled cold water all over myself and snapped out of it
@nagitoekogaeda try to spill the cold water on your head

fevers aren't gonna kill you these days but the biggest danger is overheated brain, and moving around in that state without assistance so you end up tripping or hitting stuff and hurting yourself bad.

i forget the temp, but there's a point where your brain literally just says "i'm too fucking hot, shut down all systems" and then you die. and while a fever ain't gonna reach that high, it's one of the biggest dangers on submarines or boats when there's a fire, people just drop unconscious and die from overheating.
@bitterblossom I can’t get up
I wish I could get myself a rag with cold water on it cause I’m heating up a lot
@bitterblossom I was surprisingly given a glass of water last night
So yeah
There’s still a bit of water in it
I’ll drink it
@nagitoekogaeda drink it
limp to the nearest sink and refill it
maybe pee too
drink more
refill
limp back to bed


or punch the wall and yell until someone comes to help
@bitterblossom I can’t yell my throat hurts and I have no energy
Okay I’ll try to do that though
I hope I can
Thanks for the help btw
