Hi all, I’ve been diagnosed with endo for a few years now and have been managing the symptoms with different painkillers. At the moment due to work being so busy (meaning I’m unable to take anything like gabapentin that makes it hard to wake up!) I’ve been relying on a full dose of cocodamol each day.
Lately though I’ve been really feeling the effects of it, feeling a bit spaced out, groggy, paranoid, etc etc. Yesterday I was away for a work trip with two members of my team and felt at the end of the day like I had “beer fear”, you know when you wake up the next morning after a night out and worry about what you’ve said or done the night before. Does anyone else struggle with this, feeling exposed on the medication and liable to over share kind of thing? Like when you are drunk and you just chat total shite?
Just don’t want to keep feeling embarrassed about myself, particularly in my job! Feeling a bit unprofessional as I’m up to my eyeball in codeine
