I don't think being constantly nauseous, with a headache and sleepy is a sign of good health. Shit's lasted for more than a week now. Maybe it's caffeine withdrawals? I hope it's that and not something I have to take seriously.

    Are you on any meds? My anti-depressants had this effect on me

    How long? Could be side-effects from stopping if it's less than 2 weeks

    Given your previous rough sleep schedule and overall stress, it doesnt sound off. Caffeine withdrawals tend to stop after 48-96 hours but maybe youre still withdrawing if you had a looooong established habit.

    Or, to be honest, what I swear happens is people used to intense stress have constant cortisol and anti-inflammatory going on. It keeps you up and operating, and then as soon as you start having a relaxing or less stressed time - bam, instantly sick. But they were already sick (like a flu or whatever) just pushing through with constant adrenaline and cortisol. I dunno, nausea, fatigue, headache is pretty wide constellation. If its really getting to you in a few days, maybe try a doc. Otherwise, keep eating well, hydrate (HYDRATE), take some advil and keep up your sleep schedule change.

    This is a different thing I think. When I wake up I am often with a sore throat or cough. It goes away after breakfast. I don't know what sickness would cause my current symptoms

    Otherwise, keep eating well, hydrate (HYDRATE)

    I have been doing this well. I've been drinking water obsessively. Excluding water from I've been drinking through at least 2 liters a day.

    Waking up with a sore throat or cough can be a sign of gastric reflux, cause youre lying down for a while it might back up there whereas you usually have gravity to hold it back. Especially with constant nausea. Although you said this all is only like a week rather than loooooong. Depending on where you live, might be allergy season too.

    TBH, if you got nausea, fatigue, feeling bleh, sore throat (?only in AM) I would sooner guess like the flu or whatever. Just keep track, if its not getting better go see a doctor for proper advice. If its suddenly worse, go to ER. Just keep up healthy habits while youre waiting to see which way it goes.
