MissFleece Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Okay, so I was feeling suicidal but I remembered my mom gave me some of my expired meds I got when I was 16. The dosage is 50mg of Pristiq but I halfed it cuz I remember it FUCKING me up when I was young. My lungs feel weird, my body isn't doing what I tell it to when I stand and my dog is acting SUPER weird with me, how bad did I fuck up and can I sleep this off? No longer feeling suicidal though...so that's a plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Doggo Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Expired meds are a major no-no, especially if we're talking like 5 years or so difference.Stop taking those pills and see a doctor as soon as possible, but that's kind of obviousish. GET WELL SOON.And the throwing up might be a good thing in this case. OUT WITH THE BAD, IN WITH THE GOOD.

Onnes Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Assuming Pristiq is similar to Effexor, which it should be given the molecule, its initial side-effects can be fairly extreme. The worst usually only last 1-3 days, but it can take weeks for all of the transient effects to subside. It's definitely not a medication you want to go on to or off of without a doctor.

MissFleece Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Well my mother won't drive me, I just called and she says I'll be fine. My car and I are both in no condition to drive and I am not calling an ambulance because that shit's expensive and my mom would be pissed. I'll give you an update tomorrow if I'm still around, sorry for worrying you guys. Honestly I don't feel like I'm dying (I've come close before), so I'll try to stay awake and if my symptoms get worse I'll call. My liver and I have probably been through worse, I'll come out on top, promise. If anything I'll just go eat charcoal or something.

GarthTheWereWolf Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Eh, you should be fine. Pristiq has about a 10 hour half life and what you're feeling now is its common side effect of anxiety and vertigo. For such a small dose, unless you're on a MAOI drug you should be fine. Just avoid alcohol and aspirin for a bit.Just don't... y'know.. actually go through with it an kill yourself now that the depression has lifted and you have energy again. That would be more of my priority concern in this situation. Go hang out with a family member so you're not by yourself.

I'm not going to go into detail about my personal problems or anything seeing as A no one cares, and B I don't feel like talking about that kinda shit where everyone can see it. But I'll just say that this kind of thing isn't entirely foreign to me and I can sympathize, at least in some respects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phausk Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Yeah expired pills are bad... Some people seem to be under the impression that if they're expired, it just means they won't work as well. They can be toxic...

MissFleece Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 I survived, and I love you guys. I feel really shaky but I'm probably dehydrated, so all's good. For some reason I can't take anyone that is suicidal then worries about expired medication threatening their life seriously. But yeah, get better I guess. I got too much depending on me to give in to my urges to die, man. Some days it's just really hard, but I can't leave all these loose ends. I don't have a support system so I end up dealing with the bad days in weird ways. Usually I'll do something to knock myself out and wake up fine again. I was out of my normal stuff so when I took the pills I was hoping they'd do something similar, but when I reacted bad I panicked a bit and asked you guys for help. But nah, I feel ya. But I've felt this way for a long time, this is the only way I really know how to deal with it anymore. If I tell people they end up awkward around me or ignore the fact I'm having a rough time anyway, so I'm on my own. It works, for the most part.

MissFleece Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 Yeah I get that. In fact you'd be surprised just how much I do. Which begs the question: what are you suicidal about? Not looking to rip on you or anything I don't joke about topics like this, just a sincere question. Well... uh, short answer is I feel like a very bad person.Long answer...I don't feel like I am worth the life I have, and so many bad things keep happening and as soon as I'm over it, something bad happens again and I can't stop myself from fixating on it. I have a very good head start on life, but I'm wasting it because I don't have the motivation to DO anything. The thing with my ex hit me hard, because she voiced all of the issues I have with myself. I'm selfish and I hurt people so much because I'm too blunt, I'm not the most attractive person and I'm too needy/attention whorey. I have no one to talk to, every time I try to make friends irl, it always feels like they're humoring me by talking to me and I'm annoying them, so I overcompensate by doting on them with things like paying for dinner or making things for them or buying things they like and that ends up having people who use me or people are uncomfortable with it. Or when they try to give back, I refuse because I feel like that's selfish, and I think that also pushes them away. I just feel hopeless, no one will ever love me, I have too many problems to fix and too much baggage, so here I am squandering what I DO have and just kind of waiting for things to get better. It's like being stuck in a void, or a never ending cycle of bad shit that happens to people. It's gotten to the point where if I try to tell someone about my life they don't believe me. I need to get over this victim complex, but once I start feeling confident with myself again, the cycle repeats. I know I sound pathetic, but that's the answer ^^; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spot Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 You're problems do sound a little superficial, sure, but are anything but pathetic. More often than not, it's our own little quirks that have the biggest impact on our mental health and wellbeing. I have this one friend that was manic, she reckoned cognitive therapy was a good option, might be worth looking into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
