I fucking od'd for the first time a few weeks ago. I took 300mg morphine, 140mg oxycodone, .8mg of clonidine and smoked about 5 joints (not that the weed really contributed to the OD just thought I'd mention). Anyway I took all this within a span of about 6 hours with my last dose just before midnight. I woke up at around 8am with 2 cops and 3 paramedics in my room. They rushed me to the ER where I was stabilized and sent to intensive care right after. They gave me three maximum doses of narcan, as well as oxygen and they pumped several litres of fluid into my system. The doctor said it's lucky my dad found me when he did, because my respiratory was working so slow that I probably would have died or been brain dead from lack of oxygen within another hour or two. I spent 2 days in ICU and from there spent another 5 days in the hospital in order to stabilize myself. My heart's apparently been through a hell of a strain and it's only able to get better if I quit the opiates now (which I have). Anyway just thought I'd share cause this is something I never thought would happen to me. So please people, just be considerate with your doses, and whatever you do, don't mix in clonidine if you got it, just save it for the next day when you actually need it.
clonidine just 2mg will drop your blood pressure, big time.. I took 300mg morphine, 140mg oxycodone,.. aRe you fucking crazy?
The reason I took so much was because I've taken up to 360mg of oxycodone in a day and I've never had a problem with it. This time though I spent 6 days prior to the OD in detox so my tolerance was signifigantly lowered, and I didn't take that into account. Also my cousin was telling me she took up to 1000mg of morphine a day so I thought 300mg would be no big deal, of course again I really should have thought about tolerance. Of course I feel like an idiot for taking this much, but I guess cause it's never happened before, I just assumed my body was tough enough to endure this many opiates at once.
hopefully you learned something. an "accidental overdose" is still an overdose with the same consequences. been there before, glad you made it. love life live responsibly
So let me ask the OP a question. Do you think you looked at what you took as OK when you admit that you based it on quantities taken over a 24hr period, oh and of course the brillant comment of well my friend took 1000mgs in day so why cant I dont a 1/3 of that.....! Did your friend say she took 100-200 + MGs of Oxy whit it? You do know Opiates affect peeps differently. 6 days isnt gonna lower your tollerance that much. Did ya do the same amounts after your 5 month kick or your 23 day kick you've mentioned in your previous posts? I would think after those alledged kicks, you would know where you stand after 6 days. Might as well be honest and say you've never done this much in a 6 hr period, call yourself an idiot and move on now that you cheated death! Good luck to ya....!
Hopefully this will be a moment of truth for you. This could happen to anyone using large amounts of opiates. Be safe. If you ever needed a reason to quit...you just got it.
To be honest I was already high on oxy when I decided to do the morphine, so my judgement wasn't exactly the greatest. You're right though, I was an idiot to think I could handle all of that, and it's definatly not something I'd probably think of doing sober. Also I know 6 days wouldn't lower my tolerance very much, but I'm sure it was still a big factor in the overdose. The reason I say this is because I've done similar amounts of opiates after days of binging and I've never had a problem with it.
I'm 47 years old... when i was 37 i overdosed for the 4th time... i'm not fussing on you or calling you names, because i feel right where you're at... you see, i never could get high enough... did you ever see the movie "Point Break?" ... remember when Reeves followed Patrick Swayze to Australia cause he knew he would be there waiting for that Tsunami wave... that 50' or 100' foot wave (whatever it was) that was gonna be the biggest wave ever recorded), and he had to ride it... he had to... cause he would rather die than lose a chance at surfing a wave like that... that was me on dope... i never could get high enough... i once bought 24, 4 mg. dilaudid... i expected that to last me at least 2 days... i shot 12 of them in 1 hour... i couldn't get to the point i wanted until i overdosed... i didn't mean to... but i did... that happened 3 more times in the same fashion... i always thought that one more shot would get me where i wanted to be... truth is, i couldn't get there? be safe my friend... and more importantly, be careful!!!!!!!!!!!!
