Teens: What do YOU do when you're home sick?

Which i am currently, and there's no tv in my room. I'm being quarrentined up here, so i'd like to know what you all do when sick?

I call up one of my family members. It gets really, really, really, really frustrating and tiring speaking English all times, and it is good to know that someone who speaks your language will not have trouble understanding you.

I also draw and write a lot, it helps get my mind off of something that will make me sad.

I hope you will feel better soon :)

I'd recommend calling them or contacting them in some way, but if that's not an option then puzzles are good.  Jigsaw puzzles, logic puzzles...Sudoku..they all keep your mind busy.  I keep 1000 piece puzzles around for those times and when I need to get my mind off of food!

Also, you could volunteer somewhere and get out around people.  I have been feeling very lonely lately so I adopted 2 kittens and I am going to begin volunteering at that animal shelter.  You could volunteer to serve meals to the homeless, clean up parks, etc.  Wait...are you not ALLOWED to leave?

Read. That's about all I can do. Usually my eyes eventually get so tired that I fall asleep. Not too bad. ;-P

i keep a journal and write down my thoughts, my favorite poems or song lyrics, etc... it keeps my mind off of sad things.

 

and i video chat with my mom and dad =P

I take a nap. :]

No, i'm not banned from leaving, but my temp. is so high that it would be dangerous to leave :/

and i read all my books!

you don't need television when there is www.hulu.com

 I was homesick last weekend.  The most helpful thing, other than talking on the phone to my family, was getting out and excersising.  Walking outside in the sunshine really cheered me up and got my endorphins going.

If you can't go outside, I would read a book.  If you can't read a book, do some art!

im guessing youre at home, sick rather than home-sick!! i think reading is really relaxing....also hen im ill i normally feel tired and sleep more!!

also, i end up doing college work...because i know im missing stuff so its good not to get behind :)

Play my guitar and cry.

I don't deal well with homesickness.  So yeah, you're not alone. :(

EDIT: oh, I just realized, you're at home, sick, not homesick.  Oops, sorry, I feel dumb now.
