I thought I was sick, but I'm just really depressed again
I have depression and A.D.D, but I'm medicated and I haven't felt bad in a long time. I take vyvanse, and that helps immensely with not only my A.D.D but my depression as well. Spring break just ended, and during the break I didn't take my medicine because I didn't need to focus on anything. I thought I had gotten a stomach bug or something on Monday, because I didn't want to eat, I felt really nauseous, and I just wanted to lay around all day. But now I'm worried that I'm just going through a really depressed episode with school starting back and all that. I haven't eaten much, and I've just stayed in bed all day with the lights off and slept more than I should. I don't really know how to tell my parents, they're going to assume I've been faking. I'm completely unprepared for school, and thinking about going back makes me feel sick. Have any of you experienced something like this, and what can I do to get back on track? Thanks 

You really should talk to your doctor about what's going on. VyVanse is short-acting, if I recall correctly and really isn't designed as an anti-depressant (despite qualities that do that).
It's worth getting checked-out. Would urge you to do it before break is over.
Best of luck. Let us know how you're doing....
