I think if your used to taking 1 but went on to take 6 it would not be a nice experience! would mess your head up for nothing,
from the sound of it you already have done it... maybe you should be telling this to the people who are helping you like your GP or Counciller
meh...*whistles inocently*.....
sorry kate *hide in shame*
this hypothetical persont dont want his hypothetical family to know though..
anyway u comeing on msn?
anyway this hypothetical person talked to his nicest hypothetial friend he ever had and he is doing somthing about it..
A friend of mine managed to get 200, yes thats 200 paracetamol down him and that wasnt enough luckily, although they said he's probably done serious long-term damage to his liver.
There is a myth that topping yourself with pills is an easy way to go, its NOT, its deeply ugly and you really really dont want to do it.

Said person should consider that if they cannot be responsible to manage their own prescribed medicine, they should ask someone else to do so, ie a parent or relative. Said person cannot expect to get the benefits of a medication if they don't bloody well take it properly.
You'll feel ill, basically. Which in the end, just makes you feel worse as you'll just be moping around feeling cack physically.
