I went to my room and cried and cried (I m not usually depressed) , fell asleep and woke up and barfed 7 times so far with chills. Might I have food poisoning?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history Of taking dahi, rice and some leftover food and felt depressed within 10 minutes. Woke up with barfing and chills.
I do not think that someone can become depressed eating.
It would have been coincidental to have depression and crying with food, which might have made you remember someone hence causing psychological upheaval.
Barfing and chills indicated food poisoning.
I would advise you the following:
Consult your Doctor, discuss about depression and other symptoms, have clinical evaluation.
Get a prescription based treatment.
