Oh wow that’s amazing that you had that will power to go to the pharmacy’s and do that. Wish I had the courage.
your addiction sounds retry much like mine too, I was averaging 20-25 on a normal day and 32 (a whole packet of Nurofen plus) on a bad day. I’ve always taken them for period pains but when lock down started I was getting migraines all the time so the dr told me to take NP for it and after 3 years I realised I was addicted. Was on here last year and managed to give up for a few weeks but then had some shit in my life and here I again .. was back to 20-25 a day in no time. I’m tapering at the moment and down to 4 a day and it is a mental battle every day
