Let's see, there's just too many for me to choose from... 10 years ago harm reduction was the last thing on my mind and. I overdosed on everything from DXM to cocaine a minimum of 6 times that year... the scariest one was my last o.d. But that was from angel trumpet tea (shits fucking highly toxic btw prolly should've looked it up first) - 10 days in ICU and 3 of those in a coma finally gave me some perspective.
Strictly speaking opiates though... a few months before the angel trumpet I had quite the tolerance to my Roxies (roa- IV) and lived with my bf and his mother who also had scripts. So come script time, the bf and I would usually kick the night off with a 90-120 mg shot with more to follow later. On this particular day, mom's OC 80's were in and the bf decided he was gonna do 2 at once. I know that's a bit past our tolerance (practically double) so I try to talk him out of it- no luck. Finally, I tell him that if he's doing 2, I'm doing 2... he calls my bluff. Me being young and obviously dumb af say, fine- thinking/ hoping he'd back out before it actually came down to it- of course he didn't....
So i sit on the bed, take a deep breath and go for it.. I remember taking off the tourniquet and him asking how it was. I nodded and asked him to get me some water (not my typical response when all is well). He asked if I was ok. I nodded...
I was not ok, but I'd be damned if I admitted that after the bs debate/pissing match....
So he goes to get the water but left the door open. Me, not realizing he did that on purpose, got nervous that his mom is going to come by and see we were shooting up. So what do I do? I stand up, took two steps toward the door and LOCK it as my vision is going black....
The next thing I remember is my bf crying at me asking if I'm ok. I give him what had to be the shittiest look, and whith the nastiest attitude say, "yeah, are you o fucking k?" He looks at me and yells to his mom, nvm on the ambulance she's fine. Then tells me, " baby, you were just having a fucking seizure".... apparently when he came back to the room he found the door locked, I was unresponsive and all he could hear was the sound of my foot hitting the door...luckily I had passed out before closing it completely, but my body was blocking it from opening.
So that's my opiate o.d. there's more where that came from too but ain't nobody got time for all that. And I guess all's well that ends well- I'm still alive and kicking despite my very best efforts back in the day. but I guess that's what it took to straighten my ass out and hey, at least I got a bunch of fucked up stories I (barely) got to live to tell.
