Comment on Am I ruining my liver?

Many countries have lowered the max dosage of Paracetamol from 1000mg since there's indeed a worry that it will cause liver damage. I'm in one of the countries that still go with 1000 (Sweden) and my suggestion would be to use 500mg Paracetamol and 400mg Ibuprofen taken together instead. That's what the medical professionals themselves do.

That said, something in your life is causing you to have morning headaches and it's a better idea to fix that. Regular painkiller usage is one of the things that causes it (!). Other possibilities can be waking up during the wrong sleep cycle (deep vs light), sleep apnea causing bad sleep in general, overdosing on caffeine causing withdrawal symptoms in the morning etc.
