I've had to take a week off lifting, first time in 4 years.
How bad will this fuck with my gains? I don't appear to have lost any size yet after 4 days of no lifting, returning to the gym next Monday on a new routine.
I was doing a PPL the last 6 months and REALLY fucked up with over-training, last week I felt incredibly ill and unable to recover and actually became extremely weak, which caused me to decide to take this week off training to try fix whatever i fucked up with my CNS or whatever.

Am I getting baited? One week is fucking nothing, many programs intentionally put in a deload week for recovery.

You might even get stronger if you are telling the truth

Yep. I got sick and had to take two weeks off in 2 years of not skipping a day (lifting day, still had rest days). Came back and hit a squat rep PR, form feeling comfy as fuck because my body got time to loosen up for once.

If you're really overtrained, then rest assured that one week of rest won't cut it for you m8

Dude, you need the rest.
And schedule more deload weeks into your program next time or you'll end up taking even more time off from injury.
