I discovered this in like elementary.
So I have seasonal allergies, horrible. My mom never liked having me stay home, and the way things are going, I wouldnt want to. So in class I'm having to use a bunch of tissues, its just so embarrassing, but like, whenever I'm having fun, they go away. But usually they come back when class starts again. Usually it's just gym and lunch. I don't have fun at lunch though, is the funny thing. But atleast I'm not working/listening. There are no tissues in the rooms on those periods. Sometimes we have a free day or a spirit day or whatever idr, and theyre just, vanished. At home too, I'm not having any fun, theres only 3 other people, and I'm just hoggin the tissues. But like, today, I went to a C-mas party, had some fun there, they weren't there. But when I got in my dad's car to go home, they're bback.
So, lunch aint fun, gym and the other stuff is, sometimes I'm spending time with the extended, its only nice. And theyre not there. But in class and chilling time at home, its horrible.

I wonder why that is?? Anyone else experience the same stuff??

Just take allergy meds..

From joy to sorrow, yesterday to tomorrow, you've been there. Friends like you are rare, your touch is so gentle,
You're my guardian angel.
Like a blossoming flower spreading your wings in grace, filling my heart with power
by feeling your embrace.

Wherever the wind may blow, we will overcome this war, in times happy or sore, I will never let you go.
With a gentle warm heart and a will of stone, We'll never be apart, You'll never be alone. - John <3

Maybe when you're distracted, you don't notice the pain or the discomfort because you're doing something that takes up all of your time, effort and attention. I've realized that when I'm not feeling well, being around friends always helps me to cope. Sometimes I forget about the pain altogether! It may just be a psychological thing; the mind is a powerful tool!

Ugh im basically sick all winter due to allergies :(

Like Philomena said, you probably don't have much time to think about how miserable you are with allergies when you're busy.

Unfortunately, some of us aren't that lucky. I have them really bad year around and have a history of sinus infections, which in turn make me sick as hell. Even if I wanted to distract myself from them, I can't.

I'd talk with your doctor about it if they bother you. You could get some allergy meds as well.
