Pneumonia has been going around, if you find yourself not being able to clear out your lungs and having coughing fits kind of constantly to the point that you're losing your voice, see a doctor. Chest x-ray will reveal all.
Have a nice sit, let your body do its thing. Less screen time would probably help your head right now. Maybe a nice shower? Might help some things relax, if you can manage it.
Aw I'm sorry! Being sick is no fun. If you have any zinc tablets it's good at boosting your immune system to be able to fight off infections easier. For coughs I find hot honey and lemon helps me a lot. Soup too! Be sure to rest up also since rest is important. Get well soon!! 🙏
Some kind of hot drink is nice. The whiskey warms up the chest too. Hot showers are helping. I'm using the "boiling a frog" approach to getting the steamy water steamier as I normally can't tolerate hot showers. And my new friend is a sinus irrigator, kind of like if a neti pot and a WaterPik had a baby. Battery operated pulsed water up the schnozz (using the premix packets of course). It's helping to get the gunk out.
This is all in addition to liberal cough syrup and mucinex and Halls and Sinex.

I'm right here in the boat with you.

I may need to give up and go to the doc.

Hot tea helps me a lot. Adding some honey is good for the throat, too.
Not sure if you're looking for suggestions or are venting, but I figured I'd help.
