    Mononucleosis I imagine is like a lazy vacation for those who sleep through it.

      Mono feels like having a really bad cold while being anemic for half a year straight.

        From the looks of it, it always seemed peaceful, like the people sleeping through the day seemed to enjoy it.

          It’s really not. They sleep because they are utterly sapped of energy. It can be so bad that people have to temporarily quit school or work.

            That happened when I attended. One month, me and maybe one or two other people in our age group were the only ones who showed up because everyone else got infected and stayed home (I never had the disease). I didn’t get along with anyone, so it was an amazing month.
