i always feel like I'm not a good person and i feel that there's not much of a reason for me to even exist when I'm stuck not being able to take my meds like this and it's just so stressful and scary feeling like I'm not able to control my stress and my episodes and I'm worried i could really mess something up
ahh hey please hang on tight :(( hopefully you can get medication that doesn't cause nausea.. + please keep in mind that you are a good person, no matter what your thoughts tell you. i understand completely so if you ever wanna let it out feel free to do so. just keep going until you are able to take your medication, you can do it!

Have you contacted your doctor? Even if you don't have an appointment,  many doctors in my area will answer phone calls or have an online portal for e-mail-like messages (but more secure than e-mail).

I literally threw up every time I took a particular med. My doctor didn't want me to stop it.  He said to take it with Pepto Bismol (which is nasty, but it's better than vomiting). Your doctor may also tell you to take it with food instead of an empty stomach,  may decrease the dose, may change the form, etc. Some meds are available in several forms, like dissolving wafers vs coated tablets vs syrups, and one form may be better tolerated than another. One of the meds I tried even came in a patch! 

I am sorry to hear that you are going through this. I hope you are able to find a solution that works.

Today seems to be a good day for me.... it's good because this week has been generally stressful for me :/ ever since graduating high school my ADHD has reared its ugly symptoms more obviously and I have to deal with more than just being a bit too into JJBA or my music LOL. I figured out I have autism too... it's like a double whammy haha :) but things that seem simple to neurotypicals have become rlly hard for me. I never stopped to consider what living as an adult with ADHD would be like when I was in high school and able to get by with bare minimum effort. But... I'm adapting and I know my disabilities well! I wouldn't want to not have my neurodivergence because although it makes a lot of things harder it also gives me the amazing ability to pull obscenely obscure music trivia out of my brain within seconds (for example- did you know Led Zeppelin and The Moody Blues were asked to perform at Woodstock but denied the gig?)! That might sound sarcastic but I genuinely mean it. People think it's amazing that I know so much abt music :) it makes me happy!
I kinda rambled, but... what I'm trying to get across is that being ADHD/Autistic is not a walk in the park, but it really isn't this terrible thing that makes life unlivable. I'm trying to teach myself that- some sort of inner ableism tells me otherwise ("everyone else is fine but you specifically are faking it")
BTW sorry if this doesn't count as mental health- I know that this is a different kind of neurodivergency, but ADHD affects me like my mental illnesses do IMO!

I think it's fine. ADHD & Autism are often considered part of mental health. Also, I think everyone is free to talk about their mental health here, whether they have a mental health diagnosis or not. 

That said, if you are interested in connecting with other players who have ADHD and/or autism, there are also specific threads for ADHD & Autism:

oh yeah, I saw you sweeties talking about anhedonia and abt struggling with online classes. that's exaclty me right now. I'm so tired and unmotivated that I can't attend to all classes, and in two weeks my exams are going to hit hard. Don't know how to cope with it, I have been talking with my therapist every week and taking SOS meds, but still really dragged down... not being able to see my friends bc of COVID also is a strong down side. 

I'm hoping things get better soon for me and for everyone, so let's focus on that glimmer of hope, I think? :))

I have finally ridden out my initial high from getting a whole bunch of serotonin thanks to new hyperfixation and now I'm just super tired the entire time yaaaay, maybe it's because of my fucked sleep schedule or because the days are getting shorter and darker faster, either way I'm feeling less active than I did before but I'd say I'm still doing pretty good, I'm hype for the Secret Santa events I'm in and I actually made a few arts!

ughh tell me about it!! honestly i do not even understand why professors are being so pushy during a PANDEMIC. i feel like so many of my professors have forgotten what we are living through right now is literal world history--do they really think i'm going to have the energy to worry about an essay when my paranoia is constantly convincing me someone i love dearly might die from COVID or i might possibly have it or my family members are going to contract it and get me sick? it absolutely destroys my motivation for online school ;-;

I'm doing okay, I think. I could definitely be better but sometimes there are things I just can't control. I do wish I could just press a "RESET" button sometimes and start over again, though.

i've been doing okay lately. i'm really proud of myself because i have not been splitting as often as i usually do. if you don't know what that is, it's a bpd thing where something may provoke the person with bpd to view something as either bad or good, no in between whatsoever. most of my splits tend to be me viewing everything as bad and stuff, and it really makes my life hard and tends to scare the people around me because of how intense it is. even the smallest occurrence can cause me to split... but i don't think i've had a major split in a month or two. i did have one but it was very small and didn't last long, which is great. i'm not sure what's been helping me...? my medication doesn't really affect my splitting, it's mostly for my ptsd and depression symptoms. my guess is, as silly as it sounds, my cat. i got a cat recently this year and i love love love him and call him my son, and i think he has helped me so so much! so i'm really proud of myself!!
