hi! so for some context i just started adderal about a month ago, prescribed just 5 milligrams to start but my doctor told me to try taking 2 pills a day to see if it helps more. usually i take them right in the morning but i noticed a drop off about mid day.

anyway, today i forgot to take them right as i woke up so i took 2 pills (10mg) at about 11pm today. I felt good at first and helped me concentrate like normal, but about 2 hours after i started to feel a massive anxious gaping hole in my stomach. i was feeling so horrible and i decided to take a nap hoping it would fix things and that i was just tired. i woke up and i still felt the knot my my stomach. i have been anxious lately but usually it goes away after a while, and usually my medication doesnt worsen it. ive tried everything since. its about 9pm and i still feel it.

i was wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar or any unconventional tips to help with it. ive tried everything from breathing exercises to herbal tea. ive been anxious before but never this bad, and it usually goes away after some sleep.
thank you!!

really nervous about tonight since its my first concert, going with my dad and maybe hoping to meet mac. im getting there at around 6:30 (is that too early/late?) and leaving around 11. so any tips appreciated!!! thanks :)

(long story, sorry)
everything has been really stressful lately around my house. i (f16) have been really overwhelmed with all kinds of things lately, mostly revolving around my mom having a baby about 5 months ago.

i can tell we are struggling financially even though my dad tries to hide it. my mom moved out temporarily with the baby so its just me, my siblings, and my dad. i just feel so much pressure. ive mentally just clocked out of my life atm.
my dad has been acting as the head of the family by himself and has been acting kinda different in some ways. for example, he’s always had this kind of ‘lovingly-snarky’ sense of humor, but now he just seems so…fake?? not sure how else to say it, but almost like how you act around strangers. also seems checked out as well. i dont know. it just worries me

i got home from work today and went to go talk to my dad about something. i got close to him and just smelled cigarette smoke. he hasn’t smoked since i was like, eight. i told him “you smell like cigarettes” and expected him to just say something about how his friend was smoking at the job or idrk. he just kinda avoided the question. it worries me because im scared and i dont know why this freaks me out so much but im so worried for him and I dont want my dad to die. mayeb its not a big deal but i cant sleep right now and im stressed out. i asked my mom about it and she doesnt know. she says she thinks hes depressed or something.

i feel so bad because i feel like everything is somehow my fault and that im so expensive and too much work and i need to get my family out of this somehow. i know i probably need therapy but it makes me feel too..vulnerable? idk and its too much for my family to handle with me. sorry for the long rant im so tired
