I feel weird. I don't know if it's from the alcohol, caffeine, or tapering off thorazine or some combo of the three

Yeah I'm having a panic attack, it's definitely the caffeine. I never learn

I think I may cut caffeine out entirely. Like 100%. (Except the caffeine that’s like in chocolate and whatnot) I just mean the caffeine in coffee. I’ll get rid of the rest of my caffeinated coffee and stick with the decaf

It may just not be compatible with me and I just have to accept that

Maybe I should limit the alcohol to one drink at time once in awhile instead of a couple. Because I still feel reaally buzzed. I know I normally wouldn't from 2 drinks but it's because of my medication.

I didn't realize what a big effect alcohol and medication had on eachother. Like a couple hours after 2 drinks I caught myself slurring a word or two. Like damn, 2 drinks? wtf.

Just be careful bb.

For me personally, I had to cut out caffeine except for the stuff in sodas/chocolate. I drink decaf from time to time tho but not all the time. Coffee seems to give me major anxiety. It’s hard to accept I know. I used to not be like that but Idk.

I also had to limit my alcohol intake within the last few years. As alcohol gave me anxiety too. All that’s stuff above I never dealt with until a few years ago.

I would start small and try not to test it too much!

I was more productive today that I thought I would be. I read a few chapters of a book I'm reading and listened to a few lectures.

I need to organize myself more but I'm glad that I didn't take an extra vyvanse.

I’ve had pdocs tell me to only have one drink maximum per day. I’ve also had pdocs tell me not to drink at all. I usually follow the latter advice, but I’ve had periods where I’ve thought I can drink again, only to get depressed. Just saying what my experience has been with psych meds and diagnoses and alcohol. Not trying to scare you or anything.

Also I don’t know my limits with caffeine. I drink copious amounts of coffee every day and it doesn’t really seem to bother me but I wonder sometimes.

I'm gonna try and go to bed early, wake up take 30mg of vyvanse, drink a coffee, nicotine and try to organize things. Then at noon I'll take the second 30mg before my haircut then try to fill in things for the rest of the day.

I have absolutely zero motivation these days. Trying to be compassionate with myself though.

Yeah I think I overdid it tonight. Plus I drank on an empty stomach. Maybe I'll ask my pdoc whether drinking on my meds is okay or not. Like whether it's okay to have an occasional 1 drink. I don't know what she's gonna say though when I say that I've been drinking though, she might take that as a sign that things aren't good or something. It's not like I'm binge drinking or anything or getting trashed or drinking daily

I think I'm gonna be up all night. I'm afraid to go to sleep, afraid I'll die or something

Hope I didn’t scare you with the alcohol thing. That was definitely not my intention.

No you didn't , I just always freak myself out about these things anyway. I think the panic attack made me paranoid of the buzzed feeling like that it was gonna cause me to die or something. I had been feeling that way before your post.

I'll just wait till the 23rd when my next appointment with my psychiatrist is to find out what her opinion on my meds and alcohol before I drink any more alcohol at all. so no more until (if she says it's okay, and only 1) I honestly should have asked her to begin with. That's just common sense, if I'm on a bunch of meds I should ask my doctor before drinking. I guess I just don't think sometimes. I have to start being more responsible for my health/mental health etc

I had to this weird dream where people were getting genetically manipulated to live longer and it also causes weird effects. So people were living like 8000 years and stuff.

It was weird.
