There is this idea floating around that what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger. That surviving a disease leaves you better off. And it seems to make sense because we have all experienced this. When you go through hardship, often you come out more resilient, more ready to face a difficult situation in the future. But it turns out that sometimes, what doesn’t kill you makes you weaker.
So, what happens when you get sick?

Videos like this have made me much kinder to myself. Realising just how much work my body puts into staying alive and how mind-bogglingly complex it all is has given me a much deeper apprecition for a body that I always resented for being chronically ill and "broken". Now I feel like it's miraculous I'm here at all! I also really appreciate the reminder that activating your immune system requires a huge amount of energy. I've been feeling really tired and down and have zero motivation for anything since I suffered some significant burns last week. I just keep having to remind myself that it's perfectly normal and healthy to not feel up to anything while my body is busy taking care of me.

So six months into that, my blood sugar suddenly goes ballistic....635. Next thing I know, I'm in the ER and they are bringing my glucose level down in a safe manner. Two days in the hospital and they tell me that my amped-up immune system attacked my pancreas. So now, I have Type 1 diabetes and am insulin dependent.....and still have the cancer. But it's just another obstacle to overcome.

I wish we could get to the point where we’re allowed to listen to our bodies telling us to slow down and rest when we’re fighting off and infection, rather than pushing through because we must be productive at all costs.

@ReplyGPT Жыл бұрын

You make a very valid point. In many societies, there is a culture of valuing productivity and pushing through illness or discomfort to meet obligations and responsibilities. However, listening to our bodies and taking the time to rest and recover when we are sick is important for our overall health and well-being. When we are fighting off an infection, our immune system is working hard to combat the invading pathogen. This can take a toll on our body, resulting in fatigue, pain, and other symptoms. Pushing through these symptoms and continuing to go to work or school can prolong the illness and make it more difficult to recover. Taking the time to rest and care for ourselves when we are sick can help us recover more quickly and prevent the spread of illness to others. It is important to prioritize our health and well-being, even if it means taking a break from our usual responsibilities for a short time. While it may be difficult to change societal attitudes towards productivity and illness, we can start by setting boundaries for ourselves and prioritizing our health. This can involve communicating our needs to others, taking sick days when necessary, and practicing self-care to promote healing and recovery.

The fact that 41.9% of adults in America are obese and they didn’t even clarify this in their video, only focusing on vaccines despite the covid vaccines being very controversial due to the shady nature of Phzier and the censorship of information on lobbying ect. and also 16.0% of female participants reporting LTAEs which were mainly fatigue, menstrual disturbances, myalgia, arthralgia, dizziness, and headaches, is just shocking and seems misinformative to be putting this out.

@@ArawnOfAnnwn Well, I mean, if the infection is not "defeated" enough you die. So if you were ill and you're not dead, your immune system kinda probably thwarted it. Although there are diseases like HIV that attack the immune system itself, so it may seem like the battle is over, but it was actually it was the immune system that was defeated and you will die soon anyway (unless you are properly treated with medicine). Some other infections (HIV again, but also herpes) may seem "defeated" but actually just became dormant and may resurface later on. Some of them are manageable, others - not so much. Also note that not all diseases are infectious ones, so the metaphor doesn't always work. Immune system cannot do much to a bullet (except fight off infections that got in with it). And whatever cancers immune system cannot clear early on will probably evolve enough to evade it entirely.

I have lupus. Every time I get sick, like a simple cold takes 1 week for me to get better. I caught a cold once that turned into the flu which turned int pneumonia. I spent 4 days in the hospital as my lungs were completely filled with fluid. And I was even under a doctor's care at the time who refused to give me antibiotics. I have found that antibiotics help by increasing my immune system, or helping it along. In a way the pandemic was a bit of godsend. For 2 years I never got sick because I almost never went outside except for the supermarket. This last year I have gotten sick a couple of times, but I've had all my booster for Covid and the flu shot. The most I was sick was 2 days which I cannot remember ever happening. I wish, though, that I didn't have to live in a bubble. I wish people would take common sense precautions. If you're sick, stay home! I'm a tutor and cannot tell you how many times students show up sick. Sure I lose money if they don't come to class, but if I get sick my loses are even greater. Or if you are sick and must go out, wear a mask! Wearing a mask has nothing to do with your personal freedom, it is simply common sense.

I literally just got to this part in the Immune Book. It’s really great companion to the video and I highly suggest you read it if you have it. It’s broken in sections that takes like 5 minutes tops. For example, I learned that Measles attacks your immune memory cells so you can actually LOSE your immunity to certain diseases. Which is why it’s so important that we vaccinate against it and eradicate it. I hope they do a video on that one day. EDIT: Apparently measles was covered 8 years ago!

While the book has some incredible insights and cool bits of information about the way the immune system is set up, I personally hated the writing style. It takes several detours and makes several unnecessary analogies to get to every single, fairly straightforward point. It's like it was written for primary school students, not all ages. It's still a great way to support the channel and I don't regret buying it, but unfortunately, it's pretty bad both as a pastime and as a source of information.

Can confirm this! Outside of when I was a small kid, I've had severe diarrhoea (as in, several days of going to the toilet every 30 minutes) twice in my life. And both of those times were within three years after I got measles. (and I didn't even get them all that severely because I'd received my first measles vaccination a week or two before I was infected - and for those who are no doubt going to wonder, there were medical reasons why I didn't receive the measles vaccination as a kid, and the decision predated that fraud paper anyway)
