But yeah I just feel kinda off right now. And my family is over and they are ignoring me for some reason. Which I don’t really get. I just gave them my hotel room. I got my Cub Scout popcorn. It’s in a mediumish size plastic tub and it has nutrition info on it so I can actually eat it. Ugh I feel like I’m about to have a lot of stomach issues but I don’t know how to and not have everyone in the house know. But yeah I just feel like I took a bunch of crap again when I haven’t done that in days. Delayed reactions don’t happen like a week after an incident I don’t think.

I mean I feel like my family can be a bit more understanding since I had my mom text them on Thursday about the stuff that was going on so they knew when I saw them next that I wasn’t acting disinterested because I’m being an asshole, it’s because I’m not feeling good for ****ing medical reasons? Like give me a frigging break.
Ideally one med change is made at a time. You've had a lot going on and that's probably the problem. For example a few weeks ago I had a physical med change. So it took 4 days to come off the old med, 4 days to start the new one and then I waited 4 days before a psych med change so that my body wouldn't be overwhelmed and I would know what was causing what side effect.

I know you haven't had control over some of your changes and some you are trying to do fast but the combination of everything may be why you aren't feeling so good. My stomach gets upset any time my benzo dose is messed with without a very close change, for example.
