That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

It would really help people answering if you explain what you mean.
Large how?
If you mean the NyQuil pill size...........you DO realize you can buy liquid NyQuil that you just toss back a shot of, right?
Maybe OP thinks they're suppositories?
Maybe OP doesn't like the size of the NyQuil bottle? No stupid questions, but maybe there are questions too vague to be answered?
If they're asking, they're expecting an answer, which impresses upon us at least a minimal responsibility to try and figure out what they mean, right?
What's your solution? "I don't understand the question, so screw this guy."?
Yeah, that’s exactly right, if I’m asked a question that doesn’t make sense, I’ll ask a clarifying question, if they don’t provide a suitable answer, then fuck ‘em
The only ingredient worth a damn in that stuff is Tylenol. Just take Tylenol.
Ibuprofen works better in my opinion. 600-800mg chills me the fuck out.
You could just get a smaller thing of Nyquil... Look for a travel size bottle. Or take the pills.
If you’re looking to fall asleep then just take a Benadryl capsule. Anything with diphenhydramine will do the trick.
That shit is so bad for you, do not use antihistamines for sleep
Bro, water is bad for us. Everything in moderation. Choose your poison, live life.
It's really not harmful, it's just not a good sleep aid because it causes poor sleep quality and potential drowsiness the next day.
First generation antihistamines, I.e. those used for sleep, are now known to cause large increased risk of dementia
They aren't known to cause anything. A study showed a correlation, but that doesn't mean causation.
At this point working in psychiatry I've lost count of the number of things that cause dementia. Some part of my body is gonna break down first and I haven't decided which part I'm least afraid of yet, but when I do the solution is probably just going to be doing more of whatever will help it beat dementia to the punch.
The hatman and his spiders have arrived
I used to struggle with insomnia. It's no longer a struggle, ive given up. But one thing I used to do was BoxOfFeet's Sleepytime Cocktail. Which was two Benadryl, 10mg of melatonin, and a double shot of tequila. And man, I'd be out late into the next day. One time until noon.
I had one I called a “slambien.” Ambien, lorazepam, and Benadryl. It sadly didn’t always work. But then there’s always seroquel if you never want to wake up again.
Lorazepam never did anything for me. But Duloxetine actually made me damn near narcoleptic. I fell asleep at my desk at work before. And, unfortunately, that's not one to take as needed
