I starting seeing things, like one of the older guys in front of me but not there, and one of the chaperons i thot I saw was some lady, and I have a pounding headach.it has been 4 days since I got back from the camp., and I work for a shelter all day but the founder is a family friend so i can nap mid-day, i still feel sick, and I am still exhasted, and I am still seeing things. I have had a ton of water and have been keeping some food down, like toast and soup.For the past 4 days I have slept 9 hrs at night and 4 in the day, i slept 5 hrs for 7 days.

If you are seeing things, tell an adult. Someone might have drugged you or something. Maybe you ate some bad mushrooms? You need to go to the doctors. Quickly.

I think that you need a break!! I suggest that you take a break from work at the shelter.
You need to make sure that you sleep at least 10 hours a night for the next couple of nights. Don't let anyone wake you up. If your sleep for 15 hours a night, that is all right. Teens your age need 9-11 hours of sleep a night. You need to do some "catch-up sleep".
You also need to make sure that you are eating a wholesome, well balanced diet. No fast food. Since you didn't eat much for a week, you did to "replenish" your body's stores of the good stuff. Try to eat at least 3 meals a day. You need to make sure that you are eating good amounts of protein (meat) and veggies and fruit.
Advil is not going to make this better.
If you get enough sleep (at home -- not napping somewhere) and you eat a balanced diet for a week and still feel "BAD", please schedule an appointment with your Doctor. There may be something else that is contributing to your bad feelings.
Love you!! Please take care of yourself!

Calm down. There are no worries. Just see what happens for one week. If your still feeling the same, go see a doctor. Seriously, you have nothing to worry about. Trust me... some people have it worst

It could be a number of things. Food poisoning, heat exhaustion, menengitis, or dehydration. I would got to your ER IMMEDIATLY. The thing that scares me is the hallucionations. Have someone else drive you there. A blood test will be done, and u can get the proper treatment. PLEASE DONT WAIT FOR OTHER ANSWERS!!!

Ask your parents to take you to the doctor and have blood work done, and explain what happened at camp with the doctor and/or your parents.

You need to go to the doctor. It sound like you might have a virus from the food you ate.

Demand to go home. You are very sick and need to see a real Dr. It sounds like they are trying to brain wash you.

You really need to go see a doctor because something serious could be wrong.

When you see things, that's pretty bad.
You need to get to the hospital, sleeping that often, seeing things.
GO TO THE HOSPiTAL
