Silly panic attack, but it wont stop...

[sarahx]

Hey guys,
Im in the middle of such a bad panic attack right now. Its all so stupid that you will probably laugh at me. The thing is i had a rollfor my lunch earlier and had some pringles crisps with it, but they had been in the cupboard opened for about 2 weeks. They still had the plastic lid on them tho so i though they would be ok? But now my stomach is churning and i feel really sick. Im really panicking, sweating and shaking so bad this is taking ages to type. Ive taken some anti-emetics but the feeling wont go... I had been doing so well today aswell. Does anyone know how long those pringles keep after they are opened?

Hey there!


Sorry to hear your feeling badly. Chips can keep for a long time. I have eaten chips that have been sitting there for months! Yes they're stale, but they are still okay to eat. You should be okay.

The pringles i had tasted fine......

those pringles were protected friom the air by the plastic cover... they are fine.


even if they wernt protected from the air.. they wud just be a little bit soft, thats all! ur not gnna be ill, im sure of it.


just try and tke ur mind off of it. iv had 2 big panic attacks today as well. dunno why im getting them all of a sudden, but i am. all i can suggest is to try and tke ur mind off ur stomach/ur lunch until it all calms down.

Hey Sarah:


I'm sure the pringles are ok, and you won't get sick from them. Actually, I've been eating stale chips from a bag for about a month now, and they didn't taste or smell right, but I ate them anyway, and I was ok. Don't ask me why I kept on eating them. I finally threw the damn things out when my husband said they were stale. I was fine, and I'm sure you will be fine also. Try to keep your mind off of your stomach by reading a magazine, a book, watching a movie or TV. That should help. Take care and hope you feel better soon.

Sure theyre fine. My flatmates leave pringles for many times longer than that, n they dont get sick.

Pringles are my all time fav's when I'm not feeling well, they're like my crackers!!!!! I'm glad your doing better!
