What is wrong with me???????

[TeresaB24]

Yesterday I was thinking of dropping a old computer monitor on my foot. Just so I can get pain killers.

I Didn't go through it, I chickened out at least 4 times before deciding that it would be just to much pain to deal with.

Im also Addicted to tylenol PM. I started a thread on it awhile back but forgot about.

No I don't the Tylenol Pms to help me sleep. I take them becasue I like the groogy feeling they give me. I take 3 at time at least twice a day. I have gone a day or two without them and I sleep fine without them.

My drug addiction started 2 years ago when I was diagnosed with Endometrisos. Since then Ive been on Percs at least 6 times, Vics at least 5, Darvocet at least 6 times aswell. And a few other prescription pain killers. SInce Ive stopped taking the pain killers I started taking the tylenol pm. It started because I couldnt sleep one night, Ive just never stopped taking them.

What is wrong with me, why am I doing this to myself and my body?
Will I ever be able to stop without help from a doctor?

Thanks for reading.

You are ruining your liver by taking all that medicine...........

I know that what im doing is ruining my liver and other organs.

Im looking for advice on how to stop. NOT what it is doing to my body.

I came here for help.

If you are off the opiates then you might not need treatment. I suggest going to NA meetings and learning about the disease of addiction. Yep, the tylenol is cooking your liver....just throw them away.
