On a more serious note, listen to your body.
If you feel like you need rest, then you need to rest. A common cold can be worked through, and I find that if I keep myself moving, drink lots of water, and make sure I get plenty of sleep I get over the cold quickly.
I wouldn’t classify the flu as a mild illness. A high fever combined with violently puking and shitting calls for lots of sleep unless you want to perpetuate your symptoms.
