Do you have general problems sleeping or is it when you just want to sleep because you can't deal with what's going on?
Last year I went through a phase of taking a few Nurofen or whatever to get me to sleep because I just didn't want to be awake. Sometimes it would be in the middle of the day. I couldn't deal with how life was at the time. If i wasn't taking painkillers i was drinking.
Enough about me.
I reckon it'd be better to see about sorting out what you're escaping from when you take the co-codamol. So you don't feel like you want to escape anymore.
I know you're addicted to the co-codamol. It's prob' the codeine in it.
I agree with animad. A plan to wean you off the co-codamol would be really good. If you felt upto it (=
Sorry i've rambled on loads.

Nope my psychiatrist and others docs have never really offered me advice on how to help myself stop this just that I need to stop it, well DUH I know that myself lol.
I take them when I'm bored like now, I take them when I feel low, I take them during the day to just go sleep to escape, I'm escaping life I think, my thoughts, my behaviours. Yeah its the codiene I'm addicted to
I mean its either cutting or starving myself or binging, or over exercising or taking lots of co codamol. I'm so ******* complicated
