Accidentally ate peanuts

Lounge
1

I bought almonds and in the back of the package says contains: peanuts NOT may contain, but contain. I’m screwed. I sleep walk from peanuts, and I’m worried I’ll kill myself in my sleep. Hopefully it was a med interaction in the past, that med I’m not on any more. Because when I was on it, I ate asparagus sauteed in peanut oil, and my boyfriend caught me trying to climb out the window

How scary! Hope you’ll be okay.

Thanks, maybe I shouldn’t take my meds and forget about sleeping tonight

Perhaps consider investing in a pair of handcuffs so you can be handcuffed to the bed so there’s no danger of falling out the window?

I was thinking that. I really was. I could do anything in my sleep to commit suicide. It’s scary. I don’t have bars on my bed

It’s like all wooden low to the ground and there aren’t even handles on the night stand

The past couple of years I found out this, and tell people, they look at me like I’m crazy. They think it’s a delusion. It’s a proven fact for me. I avoided it, it doesn’t happen. I eat it, it does.Thats the proof. I’ve had my mom hide all the knives before because we didn’t know what was causing it

Do you have someone that can watch you? I hate to admit it but I have had people watch me sleep before. I didn’t want them too but my boss in the military made them do it.

I felt real bad. They were my peers. I begged them to go to sleep too but they watched over me all night and still worked the next day.

I don’t do anything in my sleep so it was unnecessary but if you need it that’s something different.

Might have to go to the ward.

My boyfriend has something going on tomorrow, and needs sleep, doesn’t think it’s serious, says he can wake up, but he sleeps heavy. The ward, in the US, for sleepwalking? How many days …?

If you are a danger to yourself the ward is the best place for you. Just explain the circumstances.

I would guess a few days but I am no doctor. You said it’s the peanuts right? They would know how long until it’s out of your system.

I’ll just stay up all night, I don’t want to be bothered with being in the ER for all hours, getting observed, diff meds, then voluntarily admitted… not worth it. Cause then there’s like a 72hr hold or something, and it’s the weekebd. Gotta wait for the doc. Staying up seems easier

My boyfriend said he will figure something out. We might tie a rope to each other

Whatever works but eventually you will have to sleep.

Are you sure it’s the peanuts making you sleep walk?
Sounds odd to me.
Maybe it was a med reaction in the past.

Idk, couldve been fluphenazine, peanut reaction… not sure. But sleepwalking was chronic on risperidone as well, at that time I didn’t make the peanut connection. So I don’t know what to expect on imvega

Yep, it happened. Luckily my boyfriend was still up. He woke me up from it cause I was in some sort of trance. He kept calling my name, then after I fell back asleep nothing happened. It might be psychological. My old therapist had evil intentions, and every time I called her feeling like things weren’t real the ■■■■■■■ crackpot told me to eat peanut butter

Wow thats a strange side effect from peanuts !

I learn something new everyday :slight_smile:
