Ginger tea? I cut up / grate raw ginger and add water and just sip on it.
Honey on toast for a little energy burst. and don't get too worried - nothing saps your motivation like nausea

I normally don't enjoy ginger tea or have raw ginger hanging around at home. But as it happens, I have some right now, I'll give it a go, whatever might work... It's not like other times where I've had heartburn and burping and taken some antacids, or when I've had stomach pains, this is just nausea. Big week next week and I can't afford to spend more days feeling so low. Thank you for the reassurance, I just feel like this is speed running me towards depression again and I've worked hard to get myself out of it recently

Oh yeah I get that. The 'do I need to rest or is this depression starting' is the worst. But unless you can trace the nausea to anxiety then there's something wrong with your tummy and rest is good. Just try to get sun and eat as regularly as possible but chill.

Hm, I feel like there could be a hereto unacknowledged psychogenic component of it too. But yeah, worrying about it won't help either. I'll try and go for the ol' reset in the morning - pretend like the day before didn't exist. I really appreciate that you get what it's like, thank you for the reassurance :D
