The first aid box

Years ago when I first moved out of home and lived on my own, I had a tiny little first aid kit in a bag, which I also shoved a box of paracetamol in, just in case I had a headache. Slowly over the years that kit grew, into a small box, a bigger box, a biscuit tin, a kitchen drawer, a shelf in a kitchen cupboard, right about now, with a house of 3 I’m at two shelves, and one of those is just for all my medicine, which I’m trying to fit back into a biscuit tin! You should see me when I go away for a night, if I’m away for longer than 4 days I practically need a small carryon suitcase for medicine. I wonder if any of it actually really works? I know some of it does as it’s prescribed to me for a reason. But some of the other stuff, I’ve just bought because the description of what it does or how it helps matches the kind of thing I’m after. I wonder if sometimes in fact it just makes things worse.
