Threw Up This Morning
greetings all! obvious warning for vomit talk here.
i've been on vyvanse for one month now. yesterday, i picked up my new rx for 40mg (specg generic, same manufacture as my 20mg generic). it should be noted that prior to getting formally bumped up to 40mg, i was double dosing my 20mg to be 40mg because my psych and i agreed that is the right dosage for me. yesterday, i took my new 40mg pill and then ate a sushi roll. i was active all day (4 hours at the ice rink) and had no issues. ate dinner around 7pm.
today i took my 40mg dose around 9am. around 10:30am, i started feeling really shaky and nauseous. this isn't abnormal, as i do have low sodium. i went into the kitchen and started toasting some bread. i drank some pickle juice while waiting for it to finish up. once done, i just put some butter and apple jam on it.
sat down at my desk, attempted to take a bite of the toast-- instant regret. i immediately had to run to the restroom to puke. it was only pickle juice (lowkey grateful for this, lol).
soo... is this normal? this all happened around 20 mins ago, and i feel relatively normal now. i'm trying to finish this toast.. still kinda hard cuz no appetite obviously, but no more pukey feeling.
i am feeling very lucky that i have been semi-cured of my emetophobia prior to this happening. shout out therapy!
thanks yall. :)
