Withdrawel

So, because of my ADD meds I'm taking, I haven't been able to get a good night's sleep unless I go a night without them. So, to counteract that, five days ago I dropped back from taking two to taking one, just to see if that would help, without asking a doctor first. Let me just say that I do not recommend doing that unless your doctor tells you to! I'm now fighting off dizziness, have almost passed out many times today, am constantly nauseous, and actually did pass out from what we thought was dehydration at a concert (during the last of MCR's set, dangit!). It's horrible, and apparently it's just the tip of the iceberg on withdrawel unless I start taking two again...so I guess I have to. I hate it though, cuz if I do sleep I have these horrid nightmares that I can't wake up from, and if I do wake up, I feel like I'm still in them for a good ten or twenty minutes and still see them instead of my natural surroundings. Talk about your bad reaction! God, I hate meds.
