Answer 1

Addiction to ibuprofen is unlikely. However, you may be suffering from depression. See a doctor.

You have asked this question 3 times in the last 24 hours on here and pretty much gotten the same responses.

Answer 2

Your definitely addicted, here is some advice; Talk to your parents about it, they will understand painkillers are extremely addictive. Then have them take all of them away hide them lock them up throw them away ect.. Drink lots of water about 12 cups a day ( this will clean your kidneys ) after three days you should be fine but try to stay away from any pain killers and keep yourself busy. If this does not work consult a doctor, this happens frequently, your not alone! Hope i helped.

Answer 3

No your not addicted to pain killers. You would be going through withdrawals. Stomach cramping, night sweats, twitching arms and legs, vomiting etc. It does sound like you have some depression issues going on. I would lay off of the ibuprofen. Large doses can be dangerous to you kidneys and liver. "My heart is like a brick" I would see a doctor about that. That could be something serious.
Good luck my friend.

Answer 4

Sounds like the painkillers and quick fix-it for a real depression problem you might have. The physical aspects of painkiller addiction is severe withdrawl symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. That and wanting to do them all the time.

Answer 5

Yes, seek some help, but no I don't think there's an addiction to ibuprofen. Unless you're doing dozens a day. Addiction to pain killers usually means an opiate. Like heroin.

Answer 6

It sounds like you could have major depression. Unfortunately, this can lead to people trying to "cure" themselves, or at least make themselves feel better by using alcohol, drugs, etc. It would be a good idea to see a psychiatrist, or at least your family physician as a first step, before somethign like that happens to you.
Ibuprofen does not cause physical dependence or tolerance, but overuse can cause stomach ulcers, bleeding, kidney damage.

Answer 7

You are addicted to commercialized "SPORTS"! Go for a walk. run around your park, and join a gym! Eat better( You are very slim for your height) Get involved with your neighborhood, volunteer and help someone everyday! You will feel so much better! Good luck!

Answer 8

That doesn't sound like addiction. It sounds like depression or PMS (joking on that last one). Go see a doctor. Depression is serious stuff.

Answer 9

I don't know if you're addicted to painkillers or not, but you do seem to have some serious problems. Please speak with your doctor, tell him/her everything that you've said here, and anything and everything else that concerns you about this, and ask for help. It's very much available.
