i do cause i get tons attention when im sick at home so i like being sick:confused:

Sometimes I like to be a little bit sick e.g. having a cold cause then it feels like it's ok to have no energy and just slack.

Back when I was in school I often used to keep swallowing and swallowing in the morning to see if maybe I had a sore throat and might get to stay home from school.

yeah i like being sick, dont get much atention but had a reason to have a day off schol. i went to a boarding school, it was like tortur. hated it.
it was a cheap as school with lots of maori boys tryn to beat each up.

I dont like being sick. I'm whiney although it does get me extra sympathy but being sick SUCKS!

Nope, don't like being sick. However, not being sick won't stop me from calling in once in a while...

Being kinda sick and getting attention? yes. Guys especially are the biggest wusses when it comes to being attention suckers when sick. I think it's because a lot of guys are steadfast in portraying themself as tough regardless of their emotions... being sick gives them a free pass to turn to mush.

But being sick sick though, nooo

I doubt ADHD has anything to do with it though.

I hate being sick. I live on my own and earlier in the summer, I fell while training for a marathon. Sustained a wrist fracture and ruptured a few tendons... it was the hardest few weeks of my life. Friends occasionally came by and helped out, which was great of them, but for most of the recovery, I was on my own. Not fun...

I don't like being sick because it makes me feel even less unaccomplished and not to mention SICK and who really wants to feel like crap.

Are you a symptom bearer? :)

I like attention sometimes but I feel like when I stay home from work when I really am sick that people think I am faking or I am not as sick as I say I am and I hate that feeling. It is nice thought to get some much needed rest.;)

I ALWAYS feel that way, which is why I will drag myself to work half dead, at least then they can SEE that i'm sick and send me home. That way I dont beat myself up over thinking ... "I know that they think I'm not really sick". I think I just need to get a backbone and quit worrying so much about what everyone will think and just worry about dealing with it when they actually say it to me.

I LOVE the attention, but HATE having the illness. Whether it be a cold or following surgery, it stinks. But having everyone wait on you hand and foot is great!
