does 400 mg of ibuprofen make anyone else a wee bit punchy?

i used to, until once i accidentally took over 2400 in 24 hours without eating much and got dizzy and sick and thought i was going to puke for quite a while, and the nurse was like 'oh yeah, well, it's bad if you overdose because it's really eating those bleeding holes in your stomach,' and i went 'erk.' and now i try to keep it to 600mg at a time, max. and take it with loooooooots of food.

Yeah, sometimes I'd take so much that it felt like holes were being eaten into. I'd have no relief. Not even turning into the fetal position.

I don't do it anymore though. Those cramps and aches are not worth it.
