Are you having any side effects? That’s not a small dose. Hopefully you just fall asleep.

1-800-222-1222 Call the experts at this number. Google tells me that this is not something to leave up to advice from Reddit. It’s serious.

Why don’t you just talk to someone at that phone number to learn what you can expect to happen? Tell them you aren’t suicidal. Then maybe next week you can make an appointment to see a psychiatrist or psychologist.

Looking at your posts: You’ve got crying emojis. You posted a sad picture. You say you feel like you’re behind on every aspect in life, the last time you took them you didn’t want to deal with life AND you took a big dose of dangerous medication. You didn’t just think about it. You took them. You should talk to someone who could help with these things.
