I have BPD and I self medicate with low dose Paracetamol. It makes me feel less mental pain and also less guilt/empathy that is in excess for others. It helps me function better than my medication which is quite funny.

Would you please share dosage, and maybe other circumstances? I'm really curious what you do and what effects you experience.
1000mg doses in the morning and evening. I was on Effexor and self-medicating with opioids ocassionally. The BPD is from childhood. Since Paracetamol experiment I dropped all the other drugs, I am totally functional and focused on my work now (the mental anguish was distracting and unmotivating). I am sure this is not good for my liver but I could take a reduced lifespan over the torture that is this disorder.
Thank you very much for sharing. I agree with your judgement regarding the side effects - and it's not like antidepressants, benzos etc are that much kinder to the body.
