Yeah, my meds keep me pretty stable (minus the breakdowns). Plus, if I miss them for too long, I vomit or at least get really nauseous. So I ended up leaving work early today (about an hour and a half ago) and took them when I got home.

I accidentally took a Ritalin pill that expired in November 2017. For some reason, I misinterpreted the bottle's label. I thought the label said that I *picked it up* in November 2017 (and thus it expires in November 2018). I have no idea why I thought that, but I did. Then I said, "Uh oh... That bottle's label was pretty faded. How old is it actually???"

I researched what it means to take expired meds and it looks like it's ok that I took it by accident. Apparently it's not toxic and that you can technically take meds that are a decade old. Not that you want to do that, though. It's risky! Plus, it's fully digested by now. lol. Time to toss it.

Anyway, I get scared that someone at work is going to notice my breakdowns, especially since I scream -- even though I scream kinda quietly as to not draw attention from the janitors in the early hours of the morning. I really ought to walk to my car and scream in there, as I am much less likely to get noticed. But the breakdowns happen so fast that it's hard to hold it in.
