Experience with alcohol on Qelbree

I'm a 19 yr old female who's been on Qelbree 300mg for about 2 months now. I'll be heading back to college in a month and not planning on drinking a ton, but it is definitely a part of the culture and something I'd like to participate in if I can. Does anyone have any past experiences or tips for drinking while on Qelbree? Or is this something I should completely avoid?

Strained relationship with food affecting relationship?

I (19F) have been dating this guy (19) for about 9 months. Both our first relationships and it's been going well. I've had issues with my relationship to food. I gained some weight freshman year of highschool and that's when my body image and insecurity came along. I worked hard for years and got back to where I wanted to be that was a healthy weight for my height. It took until my freshman year of college for me to be happy with myself and not insecure. This was around the time my boyfriend and I met and started dating. He knows I have a strained relationship with food and recently it's gotten worse as I started adhd meds and it's affected my appetite to the point where I lost a decent amount of weight at the beginning but it's gotten better. I still struggle to eat and have no hunger cues but now I can eat more than just a few bites. He's gotten really concerned about me and recently expressed that he's getting frustrated with the fact that he has to deal with my stubbornness when trying to get me to eat at least two meals a day and that I'm barely eating yet still going to the gym. I love him so much but he's never dealt with what I'm going through and I don't want this to hurt our relationship. How can I go about this? Any advice would be helpful

Struggling with strain in food relationship and past issues coming up (19F and 19M)

New in Faith

I'm a 19 year old (f) who recently got involved in my faith during my freshman year of college during end of fall semester. It's definitely hard at times, especially considering my boyfriend has grown up in the church, and sometimes I feel like I'm playing catch up, even though I know that isn't the case and he's been nothing but supportive. I'm coming on here to ask for any advice on how I can grow deeper in my faith? I currently try to pray daily, go to church every Sunday, and try to read the Bible, though I definitely struggle with being consistent on that. I've also had a few people recommend watching The Chosen, but I've heard mixed opinions. Any help or advice would be amazing.

Awful side effects

I started on 200mg this past Tuesday. I take it at night, and the first night I was drowsy, dizzy, had cotton mouth, and woke up every 2 hours. The second night I didn't have any of those except for I couldn't get consistently good sleep and kept waking up. My issue with it now is that I'm dealing with bad insomnia and I have absolutely no appetite. I haven't gotten more than 5-6 hours of sleep in the past few nights. Every time I eat I can only take a few bites before I can't eat anymore. It's also making me extremely emotional. Does this get any better the longer I'm on it? I'm upping my dose to 300mg on Tuesday and then 400mg the following Tuesday. I'm genuinely so worn out right now emotionally and physically because of these meds.
