Feeling out of touch with everything

Been really unwell over Xmas with a horrendous cold/flu like bug so haven't been able to enjoy my time off which has got me really down. I have not left the house in days and I've also had to cancel plans with friends due to being unwell. Alongside this, no one has asked me if I'm ok, how I'm getting on etc and found out the friends I was supposed to see have arranged to meet up still but not even asked if I'm feeling well enough to come. (Have not spoken in over 5 days). To top this off, had an email from my manager to tell me my sale targets going up in January and we are already under immense pressure as it is. (Company is a shambles, bipolar micromanaging manager).

Feeling completely out of touch with everyone and everything. Feel as though no one gives a shit and life is getting on top of me. Some friendly advice would be a godsend please.

To add, I also have a very loving partner but he has spent a lot of time with his friends over Xmas so I've been spending my unwell days home alone too.

This sounds miserable but it's likely all magnified because you're ill. Just focus on rest and nurturing yourself and tackle the other areas one at a time when you're back on form.

This bug is everywhere so it's highly likely others are struggling too and are prioritising looking after themselves and their families rather than making time to get in contact. Try not to take it personally.
