Why am i smarter when sick/histamine?
-
When I'm sick and socializing with friends online, I become much more articulate. I can express words, concepts, and ideas I didn't even realize I knew. This isn't a one time occurrence it happens consistently every time I'm sick.
Typically, this occurs after a week of elevated histamine levels, which seems to be a prerequisite. I then develop a nasal viral infection that lasts about a week. During the illness, I also notice tingling sensations when I'm mildly stressed, which I suspect may be related to histamine release.

@lobotomize my skin looked completely smooth and glowing for like a day when I got really sick once. Maybe your body has some emergency mechanism that temporarily boosts your metabolism when you're sick

@lobotomize It's pretty complex...

@lobotomize cortisol and adrenaline are helping you out.

@dapose cortisol and adrenaline suppress immune action so that doesnt make much sense
