purplehello98Well, adderall has been kicking my ass-erall... (hold for laughter). I got prescribed it a couple weeks ago, and I've tried it one day this week and a few days last week. But every time it dehydrates me so much that it has no effect and I have to chug two or three Liquid IVs. And apparently you're only supposed to have one a day because otherwise you can overload on sodium. A sodium overdose is kind of ridiculous, but apparently possible. Anyways, I've had probably two or three hours total out of the four days I've taken Adderall (extended-release, so about 48 hours total of being on the drug) where I've been hydrated well enough to actually do anything. And those hours, I got a lot done! But then before long, I was too dehydrated to do anything more.
So I got prescribed a new med! Generic Vyvanse. I went to Walgreen's the other day, courtesy of my amazing friend and K-pop club vice president Orange who gave me a ride. Except I got there at 1:30, when the pharmacists went on lunch break. So I picked up some photos I'd had developed, and got some Taco Bell, and came back. When I got there again, they told me that they actually didn't have my prescription (apparently "prescription delivered" and "prescription filled" are very different things) and to come back Tuesday, and oh, it's also $250. What?!? I tried running my insurance with them again, but then the pharmacist told me something about a "deductible". What is that?!? And so I had to come back yesterday, although thank God I found a GoodRX code to make it a lot cheaper.
Yesterday was actually really good though! Everything just went my way and I had a whole lot of fun! Today is kind of the opposite though. I didn't get enough sleep; my friend Red, who I was supposed to have another "stitch and bitch" with tonight, cancelled because she's sick; my first class was the one with the English Professor Who Can Bite Me; and I'm just in a bad mood because of all this. I need at least one social activity, even if it's just getting lunch with someone, in order to remain sane and not get weird and lonely. I'm much more extroverted than I used to be, I think---it used to be that I could go all day without seeing many people and be okay. But then, maybe that's because I was so much more uncomfortable in my body then so being uncomfortable was the status quo. I don't know.
And that's it for now. I'm totally exhausted and in class right now but I don't have the mental bandwidth to pay attention right now. *sigh*. Let's hope tomorrow's better---toodles!
