i accidentally ran out of my medication for my mental illnesses on Wednesday. i've felt fine but now i'm really struggling to sleep it's currently 4:30am and i'm sweaty and i have a headache. i feel like crying. i know this is my own fault and i ordered my prescription as soon as i realised my mistake on Wednesday. i really don't know what to do and it's making me really anxious and stressed out, i feel a little bit sick and my mind is spiralling. i don't know if im going through withdrawal as it's been so sudden or if it's a coincidence. i really need some support or advice

@Eren2273 hi, thank you so much, i got my medication today and had a phone call with my doctor beforehand to talk about it and they told me it was probably a withdrawal but wouldn't do any harm to my body or mind just yet

If it gets too much worse, please go to a hospital. Medication withdrawals can be serious. Other than that, I'd recommend plenty of rest, food, and water. Try not to move around too much if possible because in my experience, it gets worse when I do that
depending how strong your meds it could be withdrawals and or the anxiousness of the situation. if your med (idk about it!) is more of a anti-psychotic ik withdrawals from that happen pretty quick. if it’s also many pills (like you’re missing a few of your prescription pills) that can sometimes affect it to be instant withdrawal feelings too. this is just from my experiences w meds and im too someone w bpd. it’ll be ok just try to smoke weed if you do or take melatonin. do your best and drink a lotta water. i hope u get your meds soon 🥺💖

@221bakerst thank you, i've called my mum so i can get some support from her as i'm only 18 and i'm at uni. i'm hoping it's just the panic of withdrawal rather than actually experiencing it
