Sertraline (500 mg) DO NOT DO!!!

I have never taken Sertraline before, and I knew my friend had some. So I jacked some from him, knowing he doesn't take them anymore (he was prescribed to new stuff). I was an idiot and took some before doing research, and I took 10 pills of 50 mg.

I'm kind of scared after now realizing that this is considered an overdose, but I'm unwilling to tell anyone about it.

My heart was pumping really fast, and I have heart burn really bad right now. Other than that, I am not feeling any different.

Why did I do this? I'm an idiot, I was desperate. I have bad social anxiety and am trying to try different things that would help me feel less depressed about this social anxiety (I don't try to overcome it because I know it'll never go away and I don't want to have to take a pill before going out on a date if that's the case, so I just take things to help me forget about it).

But the moral of this, and please take this advice for granted: If you are going to trip, on anything, make sure you do background research beforehand.

I'm probably over exaggerating with this slight fear of death, but please take this advice. If God let's me live on, which I'm sure he will, I will learn from this huge mistake.

 

Also it's been about an hour to an hour and a half ago since I've taken them, and reports of other people who've done this say it lasts about 2 hours, so I'm sure I'll be fine in about a half hour or so. I think I'll make it. Sorry for making you worry, but I'm just worried myself.

 

Another update: I have survived quite a while now, so I think I'll make it... Thankfully only 1% of overdosers die from this.

It's just that I'm still awake and I'm feeling quite a mix of "I'm so excited!" with "I am dreading to fall asleep" when I lay down and dizziness with loopiness when I get up and move around. I do enjoy this trip, but it is probably best not to do it again.

There isn't much of a dystopia or euphoria going on here, the only thing I really feel is a "shock" kinda feeling straight down the middle of my chest it feels like.

Another thing is - time REALLY flies by, unbelievably fast if you don't pay attention to what time it is. I'm guessing this trip is evidence of the theory of relativity.

 

Seeing how nobody is really interested anymore, I'll conclude this even though I'm still feeling it:

This trip was the biggest in a while, nearly beating 500 mgs of benadryl mixed with a 12 pack of beer. By biggest, I mean it is doing very well at doing what it does, it hit me hard.

How was the trip in general? It was pretty awesome, not worth the risk of death though. I really think if I ever decided to do this again, I'd become addicted, because as of now I'm trying to hold this trip as long as possible. When I first started to trip and thought I overdosed I was so scared, but when I just said screw it, if I die I die, go with the flow, it all worked a lot better, felt very nice. But like I said NOT RECOMMENDED I wouldn't risk death for this kind of trip. Oh, boy was this fantastic though, it was like going to an unsuspectedly great movie - there were moments that felt suspenseful, some mystery, some interesting new things I haven't felt in a while. It's amazing. Also, it gave me the ability to have at the LEAST 10 stiffies before 6 in the morning

Cons: Not a lot really, from my experience at least, at first I was feeling a slight stomach ache but that quickly went away. If you decide NOT to listen to me though and go ahead and do this - do not go in afraid, do not go in feeling regret. It will fuck your mind.

 

Does anyone know how long this will stay in effect? I'm still feeling it 12 hours later...

 

Yes, you are an idiot.
Please stop, you are giving responsible drug users a bad reputation.

NO DRUGS FOR YOU!

There's probably better ways to try to deal with your social anxiety.

It's not necessarily the case that you will always have it.

A meditation practice, especially a group meditation practice, could help a lot.

Dietary changes may be helpful. Avoiding processed foods, and especially foods that have preservatives/chemicals could help a lot. Eating lightly cooked foods made from fresh (or raw frozen) ingredients, served warm could help you quite a bit.

Acupuncture and chinese herbal medicine could help you. If you are interested, I could tell you about a chinese medicinal herb that you could smoke that might be of benefit to you.

 

Can anyone please simply tell me if I will make it through this? I'm contemplating on asking my sister to drive me to the hospital, but I'm very nervous of everyone finding out, getting scared and worried about me. When I come out of the hospital I'll told how stupid I was for doing that, and I already know I am. Is there a good chance yet that I'm healthy?

Weight: 123 pounds Height: somewhere between 5'8 and 6'. Like I said, no history with this medicine, and dose was at 500 mg

 

I'm not a doctor, so I can't tell you what the consequences might be of your taking this drug.

I think that you should try calling the poison control center. I think that they have a policy of anonymity.

You can also just bite the bullet and go to the hospital.

 

you don't need to put it in all caps to know not to do this...why would u take that many pills that u knew nothing about, or how much ur supposed to take. Also, SSRIs are not recreational to overdose on unless feeling like shit is a high u like. While not the most dangerous drugs to overdose on you should probably watch ur body temperatur and if u develop hyperthermia u need to go to the hospital. If those pills had been something else like Roxis or percocet 30s it might kill u for real

 

Does anyone think I should be safe to start popping Benadryl again? I've learned not to trip without great background research, and Benadryl is something I feel safe on, I've been doing it for a while and am constantly researching before I try new things with it.

I just don't really know how to measure what the half life of 500mg of Zoloft would be, or if that even matters. It shouldn't if I haven't been feeling anything abnormal from the Zoloft for the past 2 days, right?

 

The half life of sertraline is 22-26 hours, but it has a less active metabolite with a half life of 66 hours.

Benadryl...uggh. What are you looking for here, in trying to use Benadryl and Zoloft recreationally. Neither of these is really recreational, and will not provide a very pleasant eperience. Benadryl has horrible side effects, and really isn't that much "fun", when you are on it you just feel a heavy body load and have bouts of delirium where you think what is happening is real but it is not, but you don't really know it.

 

Benadryl is not going to help your social anxiety, it's going to make it much worse in the long term, since you'll be so drained all the time. It's also toxic to the heart. Very bad idea mixing large doses of benadryl and alcohol, very easy to die from such a stunt and again, absolutely not one step closer to solving your social anxiety.

 

I was banging 7grams of Zoloft in Saigon, when you was still crapping in your baby diapers..

 

well....that was dumb.

???

BRO you think you're nuts??! I once took 50 zyprexas, sniffed an 8g line of seroquel with a giant rollled up tube of paper and then shot dissolved citalopram into my left nut.

 

Lol

 

hey guys lets overdose on anti depressants

 

ok i hope for anyone searching somethign stupid like this on google and the thread pops up you know that the Original Poster clearly knew little to nothing about recreational highs or how to deal with social anxiety.

now everybody smoke some cannabis :sifone:

 

Interestingly, benadryl has been shown to have some light positive effect on the obsessive component of OCD. course the small benefit is unlikely to be worth the heavy side effect profile.
