You are quite right. I don’t know how long she was apparently taking 40 a day, though I suspect neither does she as it’s a big fat lie 1.5 bottles of whiskey with even a few tramadol would hospitalise people bigger than her. I know addicts can build a tolerance but she’d have liver failure, surely. Or be dead. Social Services would have her on a list.

Shed’d have, ironically, long term health complications, not multiple sideboards.

I wonder if any frays know, what effect does alcohol have on arthritis medication, Naproxen, ADHD meds etc. Not a good effect I suspect.
Jack - "They want me to stop breathing"
Fraus - "We don't, but Tramadol and 1½ bottles of Whiskey do"

Together, as they're both substances that depress the nervous system, it'll increase the sedative effects and decrease respiratory response. This could lead to unconsciousness, respiratory arrest, coma and death.

I'm an ex RN but I was also over-prescribed multiple opioids by a pain management consultant for 6yrs and spent 8 days in ITU as a result of their toxicity.

Even if she has caught up on Patreon- when is she going to realise it’s a monthly reward thing EVeRY month

Gosh, I don't have it myself but I know how bad this is just from seeing it 2nd hand let alone having it or someone close to me having it.
Miserable po-faced wanker. I can just see the sort of person who complains about someone giving crème eggs to the food bank.
My next donation is going to have a load of creme eggs with it. With some haribo starmix, because the kids with nut etc allergies are usually ok with those. It's not a child's fault their parent hasn't got the money for such a simple treat. It may not even be the parents fault, but it isn't a child's fault. There aren't pleasures much more simple and relatively cheap than a nice bit of chocolate.

I'm sorry about your daughter she sounds very brave. I wonder if any frays know, what effect does alcohol have on arthritis medication, Naproxen, ADHD meds etc. Not a good effect I suspect.
I am a student pharmacist frau and tbh, alcohol interacts with most medications. However, it’s especially dangerous to take any NSAIDs with alcohol, it massively increases yoir risk of gastric bleeding. Naproxen is one of the harsher NSAIDs when it comes to doing damage to your stomach though.

ETA I agree with what everyone is saying about Jacks arthritis medication as well btw, what she has described is not the standard treatment for arthritis at all.

Poor thing . She's not vulnerable when she's telling people to 'fuck off and touch grass' or 'off you pop and mind your own business cos what's it got to do with you' though is she ?
If she is vulnerable it really doesnt sit easy with me that she is suggesting favours for favours from people. I know we joke but this stuff actually happens to actual vulerable people. I hope its all above board.

Also her and prince harry are more alike that people, scream they want privacy then cannot shut up about themsevles, constantly wanting pity for their own fuck ups. Never ever moving on, and expecting everyone else to sort their shit out. Selfish people the lot of them.

@People-huv-tae-know I think the Tramadol was most likely before the drunken furniture buying.

Jack said in the Grauniad article that she was prescribed them 6 years ago and took them for 18 months. Her prescribed dose appears to have been 8 a day, I would guess they were the 50mg fast acting ones as the 100mg slow release would not be prescribed at that level. One ay she said she took 40 and states it was 5 days' worth.

The furniture buying was when she was with LJC in 2018-2021 - not sure when LJC moved in with her during that timeframe. Trammies would have been 2016-2018 (I think if it was 6 years ago).

It's all a bit confusing because Jack lies so much.

Thank you, that is very interesting and detailed. So if Tramadol mixed with alcohol makes one incoherent and dopey, does one still have enough capcity to order furniture online?
I mean … possibly … but, even if you could squint at your phone and choose things to put in your shopping basket, and stab your claws at your phone screen in the right order, and not pass out or be sick during the whole process, you’d be pretty unlikely to be able to order furniture that fits in your home and matches loads of your other furniture. In my opinion. Which is not a medical one because I’m not a doctor.

TW - crap reacreational substance misuse anecdote, please don’t click if you don’t want to read: I am not a doctor, but I have been off my face on tramadol and booze together (not on my own, definitely wouldn’t have come up with that idea by myself!) and I didn’t bother doing it more than once after the first time, because although it sounded like it would be quite fun in advance, it was actually quite shit and pointless/boring and I felt very sick both times. Maybe I should have taken 38 more tramadols than I did? And had some whisky instead of white wine?

Have you really completed dayhab/rehab if you weren’t honest about how much you drank and that you abused trammies
