please confess your misuse of medised stories here: i need to know i'm not the only one

[Tutter]

have given it to ds2 for the last 10ish days (one dose, at bedtime)

he started off snotty so i was using it for its decongestant properties

for the last few nights i have to admit i've continued, not because he's terribly bunged up any more, but because it gives me 3 or 4 hours sleep (he is a dreadful sleeper)

i won't give it tonight, as i have to stop before it becomes an addiction

anyone else prepared to admit using it for a break? how long for?

me me me!!

for those nights when DS is ill, I'm ill, we're all sleep deprived and I KNOW that getting a decent nights kip will help us all recover far quicker.

Sorry to the people riding away smugly on their high horses but I reckon its well worth it!

(travel sickness stuff works better though)
