Abusing OTC meds to sleep

[Dr.Duck]

I've been struggling to fall asleep for a while and I found something that knocks me out. If you take one whole box of Coricidin cough and cold med. It has a lot of DMT in it and make me finally sleep well. I don't know if anyone else has found a OTC that can do the same.

It's so nice finally sleeping, but the next morning I feel even worse. It's hangover different from others I've had (which isn't much, I've only done shrooms as my hardest drug. I'm a bitch).

This isn't much of a vent it's just a I feel so foggy and down that this is the most productive thing I can do. It sucksssss….

Are you able to see a doctor to get some prescription medication? Can take awhile to find the right thing, but it can be really helpful and less damaging than taking too much otc stuff. That stuff can do liver damage if you take too much. Be well friend.

That I definitely get. Sorry you're in such a rough spot. I hope you get some good sleep.

samesies, except i've been misusing prescription meds instead (keppra, namely. it's an anticonvulsant, so it normally treats seizures, but drowsiness is a common side effect, so i take a little more than the recommended dose for just that). i don't get the hangover after, but it gets me sleepy enough to pass out and get through with the day (or night, whenever). sorry to hear what's going on. sending hugs i wish the best for you.
