I don't know what you said in your original post, but basically any overdose (that is taking more than the recommended dose of any medication) is dangerous and can seriously damage your liver.

Paracetamol overdoses are particularly nasty because if you take a lethal amount you will not die within a few hours, it takes weeks. Very painful and obviously very distressing for you and your friends and family.

Can you think about why you want to overdose, and think of non damaging things you can do instead? If you want to let out some emotions then doing vigorous exercise is really helpful.

If you feel unsafe or have taken any overdoses then please ring 999 or your emergency number and get straight to hospital.
