Why don’t I ever get sick???

Obviously you are not including mental illness.

Age, genetics, hygiene, exposure to lots of people, you were exposed to the sickness when you were a kid

I never seem to get sick with the flu or even a cold anymore, and I don’t even take care of myself— I barely get any sleep, I run out in the cold for hours on end, and I don’t have a good diet at all, so I wonder why my immune system seems so strong.....

Even when it’s flu season or if others around me have colds, I’m always the only person who hasn’t and doesn’t catch the bug. Tbh, having a slight cold/stuffy sinuses feels refreshing to me but I haven’t felt it in a long while.

Does anyone else never seem to get sick even though it is prime time to catch viruses? Why so?

Can take up to 10 years for the symptoms of the HIV to manifest.

You're probably taking better care of yourself than you realize.

Having a bad diet is completely subjective and even most junk food like pizza, burgers have vitamins, minerals and overall calories to help your body recover and stay healthy.

Tbh an objectively bad diet is one that is deficient in vitamins and minerals and I doubt you've reached that point since you are not getting sick.

It's very unlikely that you would be deficient in something and not have the signs to show for it

Exercise is also very protective against illness

Are you in your 20’s? I used to be that way but now in my 30’s usually get sick once a year.

genetics is a great thing.

The big one is coming.

I’ve yet to reach my 20s; maybe that’s why. It’ll catch up to me someday, I’m sure.

Wait until you have kids. I work in a hospital. I never used to get sick. Now I have a toddler & as soon as he gets a sniffle I get it too. It's amazing.

Vitamin P supplements?

Bad move, man. You’ve now jinxed yourself!

Strong immune system? You have this bass ackwards.

Perhaps you have a retarded immune system? Your immune system could be so stupid that it never recognizes a threat and never launches any defense (fever, runny nose, coughing, white blood cell increase, etc). You could fall over dead, seething with bugs that your body never knew you had.

Should have kept it on the wrote:

I’ll soon have to change the user to “not healthy.”

Have you been working in the hospital for very long? I’d thought you’d become immune over time.

It would be so funny if OP catches a cold tomorrow

You are, most probably, a superhuman life form that is immune to human ailments. You most likely won’t suffer the negative effects associated with aging either. You will spawn a superhuman race that will dominate in the future. I will bet that you would not suffer any ill effects from a gunshot. In fact, you should test this theory and report back with the results. Thanks.

Honestly, I kind of hope so. To me, colds refresh my body and make me feel alive.

I thought you said you never get sick? Now can you know what a cold feels like if you’ve never been sick? ?
