Is this a serious thing? It seems so normal here in the states.

Yes, it's a thing. The idea behind it is that you don't want to become dependent on the pills to the point that they have less effect or that you feel worse without them. Sincerely, a Dutch non-techno non-DJ.

Also it can cause or amplify a lot of stomach issues

Regular use also fucks up your organs. Paracetamol (Tylenol) kills your liver, and ibuprofen kills your kidneys.

acetaminophen = paracetamol = Tylenol

One compound*, different names.

...Pedantic edit ten days later that nobody will even read:

*plus fillers and binding agents which can vary substantially between manufacturers for many medications, but not the active ingredient(s)

Acetaminophen and paracetamol are the same thing.

Others have answered, but I'll say it anyway.

The name paracetamol is used in most of the world, and by the WHO. Acetaminophen is the adopted name in the United States, Canada, and Japan. US pharmacies also use APAP. The most common trade names are Tylenol and Panadol. They all refer to the same stuff.
