    I never truly appreciated how close I got to killing my self horribly as a dumbass middle school kid. I saw so much media on people stealing drugs from the bathroom that I wanted to try it. We only really had Tylenol Extra Strength, and other simple OTC meds. Not deterred, I went and downed probably 8-10 of the 500mg pills and stopped because I couldn’t swallow any more. Got super tired and fell asleep on the couch for a few hours. Can’t imagine if I had something like this that also had alcohol in it that I wouldn’t have tried to chug it instead. Kids are dumb and they’ll do shit nobody expects and tell nobody about it for fear of consequence.
