**Trigger Warning** Just to sleep...
 
Hey all,
i'm sorry if this is against the board rules, I can't really remember. but, please feel free to delete if neccisairy.

I'm taking termadol for pain relief. It makes you drowsy, how many could I take to just fall asleep for a little while? This is not a suicide attempt, I literally just want to go to sleep.

Please, help.

you shouldn't take more than the recommended dose. if you have you need to get checked out. We can't tell you to take more than the recommended dose, because that cuold be dangerous.

Tramadol really isn't a drug you should mess around with. Taking more than the recommended dose is really dangerous. I've abused Tramadol in the past and found that it actually stopped me from sleeping rather than sent me to sleep. Have you thought about trying sleep hygiene techniques or an over the counter sleeping aid? Or if that hasn't worked or you're really desperate could you speak to your GP?

hey guys,
thanks for the replies.
I ended up taking 300mg and I'm still awake, so clearly that was a bum dumb move. Well done me.
I'm going to sleep now but wanted to say thank you for your advice.
