I get migraines all the time and Excedrin Migraine really helped for a long time. It's the only thing that gets rid of my migraines. However, One day I was doing a lot of different stuff while battling a migraine and I took excedrin more than the reccomended dose for 24 hours without realizing it. I took 2 when I woke up, 2 after lunch and one more at about 5. I think I overdosed because I was having panic attacks and sweating and almost vomiting and losing my vision. Since then I have been more careful and payed attention to only taking it once a day. I have not had the same results since the incident and now whenever I take it I get fatigue, nausea, and most importantly I get depression so bad i can't get out of bed. I have such bad thoughts and everything when I take it and it lasts for about 26 hours. I cry and can't stop thinking about bad stuff and I refuse to leave my bed and can't go to class or talk to anyone. it's really bad. This is also bad for me because I have to choose between haviing a migraine or taking it, getting rid of my migraine but being depressed for one day.
