(((((mouse)))))
this has been a reminder to me of how I began SIing- I discovered at about 14yo that taking 5x the usual dose of paracetamol helped numb out those depressed, yuck feelings yet I was still able to function fine. It was my way of numbing out my emotions. It became a daily habit for a very long time- until I was sitting in class one day and my eyesight went so blurry I could hardly see a thing.
I am 'healthy'- all the abuse I have done to my body has not harmed it (I wear glasses but I don't know if this actually had anything to do with me needing them?!) yet- my liver function tests are great; I know I am incredibly LUCKY.
Hopefully this will be the same for you; I don't know how long you have been using paracetamol for but for me it is well over 15 yrs (on and off). If you are able to post here and distract yourself etc and avoid taking any that would be ideal, and very brave in admitting you are vulnerable and need help at that point. Good luck and hope you are able to reach out when you need to.
