For me, prednisone put me in a fabulous mood, false euphoria is like a known side effect. But also right before I went on it I had bought this Costco sized box of rice crispy treats, and I ended up basically buried under the wrappers. I ate so many at once.
Sounds so gleeful in the moment. Until you have post rise crispy clarity. But that brief period of time - delish 🤌🏻

Restore AllHide UnarchivedYeah, it turns my wife into a raging lunatic. When she's on a course I just have to tell myself that it's the prednisone, and try and get her to realize the same thing.
It’s now listed as an allergy for me because it leads me into psychosis!! It sucks because I have a lot of autoimmune diseases it could help me with in a pinch!
It turns me into a literal cookie monster. Hubby gives me sweets and backs out of the room slowly.
Yes! I LOVED my short course of prednisolone! Great mood and SUPER alert! I was also eating everything in sight which, thankfully, only lasted for a few days.
Just a heads up for anyone who hasn't taken Prednisone, it can also do the opposite and make you irritable as hell and/or depressed. And it can do it even if you've previously taken it and it made you feel on top of the world.
Yeah it’s rough on high dosages (lots of Pred for Ulcerative Colitis) the body converts it to cortisone which is associated with stress. Also why you need to avoid CBD since it is the same metabolic pathway
Can confirm. Last time I took prednisone, I ended up in the psych ward for an overdose.
I just commented above saying it’s listed as an allergy for me now because of psychosis
Booooo I don’t like that. I will take care to never need it again. No more allergic reactions to anything!
🤣 I'd rather suffer temporary moodiness than deal with the alternative. Just wanted to throw out a warning.
I felt kind of crazy when I was on it one time, like my skin was crawling plus anxiety. Never again. It was just a few days, too.
You become voracious while on prednisone. 4 hours of sleep? - you wake up feeling fabulous, no problem! Hell of a drug.
I am not ashamed to say that if I could be on that for life I would.
Cons of having eczema : millions
Pros: when it gets really bad you’re getting a prednisone scrip and the entire body of skin healing in under 5 days.
The confidence boost and seemingly limitless energy is great.
Shame about the side effects though. But worth it.
Literally, millions of cons. Feel you.
Yeah I did that with the Costco size bag of Doritos at like 2 am on Prednisone
This sounds like the exact opposite of cocaine but just as addictive. I want it but I mustn’t
I felt like I could run a half marathon on prednisone but good fucking god when it wore off??? 😖😖😖I have such mixed feelings about my time on it.
You and me…same lol
I'm envious! It just makes me retain water until I look like Violet Beauregard minus the blue. 😂
I got put on it for an infected bee sting right as I was leaving for a camping trip... it's very hard to enjoy just sitting around the campfire when you're on steroids and looking for something new to do. Lol
Prednisone makes me feel insane and angry (I’m normally pretty laid back). I avoid it wherever I can
i had this when i first started it but somewhere around 20mg/half taper it turned into the opposite :/
“All my extra energy is positive energy”
Yeah, tbh I love how it makes me feel
This is a cute story. Thanks for sharing. Gave me a chuckle.
Same! It gave me such a good energy boost in the morning
