One time I drank 1/3 bottle of Promethazine DM and I almost died. First I was having something akin to a bad pcp or acid trip. I was having strange and intense disassociative other worldly feelings (hard to explain really, just experiencing pure psychotic feelings, feelings you'd get only in deep psychotic states), voices telling me I was going to hell. Then my breathing took a turn for the worse and I experienced a vision of maggots and worms coming out of someones head. It only got worse, I started feeling like I couldn't breath at all, total respiratory depression and my heart was racing so hard I could hear my heartbeat. I tried to force myself to vomit but nothing would come out. I was sure I was going to die. My dad took me to the hospital and at the hospital my breathing improved but I had visions of going into hell that were so intense I thought I was dead and I felt like I was on fire. But I guess they were just hallucinations. Luckily I survived but I was psychotic for a week. Never messing with promethazine dm again, probably not any cough syrup! Tell me your stories...
 
I've nearly died about 4 times to drugs, all of which I'm not proud of but share t experiences so that others may learn and not be as stupid and reckless as me.

First time admitted to ER, drank a bottle of vodka in 10 minutes at the age of 15. Blood alcohol was at 550, 400 is the point of death in most human beings. Was just a stupid kid, didn't know alcohol could do that to you back then. Extremely lucky to survive my first experience. Kept in ICU for two days before I woke up.

Second I accidentally ODed on codeine, xanax and bromazepam. Again, didn't know the combo was dangerous and ende up fighting myself to stay awake and alive. Could consciously feel myself drifting away, was stuck like this for an hour or two before the symptoms started to ease up. One of the scariest experienced of my life.

Third again, accidental and unintentional. DXM overdose, couldn't urinate for three days. Admitted to ER with severe dehydration and bladder was ready to explode (literally). Catheter shoved up my dick and kept in ICU again for two days.

Fourth, after blacking out drinking heavily again I apparently decided to go ahead and take a buch of benzos. Woke up again in ICU but had been there for a week this time. Doctors thought I wouldn't make it, I'd entered a coma that they thought would leave me permanently brain damaged. Took me about 2-3 months to recover.

I'm seriously lucky. And seriously stupid.
 
Luckily, personally I have not. Though I expect to read about a large amount of IV heroin users ODing in this thread.
 
Heroin and xanax. Multiple overdoses with this combo, but the most recent one is worth telling:

One month ago, I take a few bars in preparation for the aforementioned combo. Now, while I would advise against ever combining these two if you want to live, I will also add that it feels like a handjob from Michelle Obama (hedonistic yet refined). So I turn on my shower and wait for the xanax to kick in. It does. I look at the half gram stash of powdery substance sitting in a bag next to my trusty spoon, snd I start thinking: you lost your job, your smack habit is a teacher's salary, you wake up sick every morning, your rent is past due, no one believes in you anymore, no one will give you a place to stay, every creditor on Earth wants to make an example out of you, the girl you love won't even touch you, and the next step is withdrawing in jail.

I left the calculator in the other room, but I was fairly certain that this all added up to suicide if I carried the 1 and followed PEMDAS correctly.

I loaded the entire half gram into the spoon and gave it some light heat to bring out the flavor. Drawing it up, I marveled at the shot's size and color. I stepped into the shower, found a vein, and pushed it in. The warmth was perfect, and I could feel the xanax pushing the heroin past my body's normal defenses against such pleasure. I turned my face toward the heat of the water and looked around at how soft and benevolent a simple bathroom can be when you are looking at it from the afterlife. That was the last thing I remembered.

Some unknown time later, I awoke in my bed with no recollection of what had happened. I picked up my phone and called my roommate, who explained to me that he found me in the bathroom on the ground with my head leaning up against a corner, and that I was making sounds like I was drowning. He tried to pick me up and ended up dragging me to my bed, where he said my nose and mouth started pouring out blood and mucus. The volume was large, according to the stains that are still on my pillows. He left me there at the apartment, certain that I was dying. He even took most of his stuff.

And here I sit, not really sure what think about it, or the lack of sympathy several of the people closest to me felt afterward.
 
Twice (or three)

I overdosed on jwh-018 nothing deadly but I wasnt even into weed. I waited HOURS before redosing the experience was scary. I tried again a few times and it was at best stoned feeling no high the last time I did it, I gummed hardly any did loads of stuff went out and 2-3hr later OH SHIT!!!!!!!!!! This drug seriously fucked me and its all my fault 0.001 would of helped me get doses and titrate better but my brain for years after was mashed I had flashbacks. When ever I would take a stimulent and over do I would flash back to the over dose. I remember full blown randomly having my heart race and panic, pop a xanax and 2 seconds later it wa gone (drugs dont work THAT quick) so it's my head messing with me. Worse I only did meph, benzos and gbl I was scared of other drugs mainly weed and trips. Later on I got into others fine. I even tripped and it was good, I tried weed and it was aweful the exp came back. Today my brain appears fine but it took a long time to recover, I actually thought people on holiday were getting it into burgers and what would happen if I eat one?

second time was Heroin/methadone I was on alot of benzos and stupidly died for a moment. I survievd it was my fault and I disserved it for not being careful with IVing.

another one was Methylone which I love I did some waited and slowly over the whole night did just 350mg later it built and I went insane. It was a dodgy batch I tried low doses and waiting and I STILL GOT burnt. I popped 0.5mg Xanax and remember nothing but looping and will writing all day. WIthout benzos I would of gone to hospital. For 5 days I had memory impairment.

I rarely OD as I am CAREFUL due to my jwh018 exp.
 
I've almost died 3 times in my life.

Once as an infant due to influenza, once in Asia when I had malaria and dysentery at the same time, and once just a few years ago from listeria poisoning.

I've been in several serious car accidents but I walked away from them all, so I'm not sure if they count as NDE's or not.
 
GHB and Speed.

Halloween:
I started out by dosing my usual combination like usual. A very low dose of amphetamine to make for an easier dosing curve on GHB. I went to the room and met up with some friends. We shot the shit and got food. The effects of G were really kicking in at this point and I took a little more speed to stay alert. (G and speed are two drugs in which completely contradict one another's side effects quite well.)

3 Hours later I redosed on G and began to fall asleep. A cure girl, who had recently broke up with her boyfriend, was the only person in the room as the others had left for a few hours. We had wild sex for 2 hours before I was tempted to dose speed with her (she had a monster tolerance. I had none.) I dosed with her and felt the sensation of pins and needles hit my body. I knew exactly what was happening, but due to my location and company I was unable to get proper care. It only continued to worsen as I became cold and could not stop shaking violently. I saw myself in the mirror and my face was pale white as if I were dead. I could feel individual pulses of blood going through each arm. I could not talk properly, my thoughts were a cloudy mess of entropy.

I felt a sharp, burning pain in my kidneys and before I could call for help, I was unconscious and awoke several hours later with her asleep next to me.

Moral of the story: Both drugs can cause seizures. Especially in someone who forgot to take their benzo that day.
 
When I was doing loads and loads of oxy, tramadol, codeine, tilidine, ethylmorphine and usually about 5-6, but sometimes up to 10 various benzos combined every day I probably came very close to OD'ing on a very regular basis. But, nothing ever happened. Nowadays I'm pretty careful about my drug use.

a few times actually...First was some hospital antidote used for apap poising. They gave it to me..left...hospital understaffed nurses dont pay attention was sitting there and felt hives all over my scalp tried to yell for someone no one came so i sat there for a bit then glanced in the mirrior above the bed...and my face was redder then any face ive ever seen like bright fire truck red no joke. I tried to rip the iv out but was to weak ended up falling out of the bed by then i could barely breathe and was coughing non stop, throat n tongue swelling. Very uncomfortable feeling a tongue ring being swallowed by your tongue lol. finally draggedmyself out into the hall and finally a nurse saw and ran i dont remember anything after that except muffled voices and weird feelings of sinking. the last thing i heard clearly was, "get a crash cart" then the weirdness. I was sitting somewhere else. I felt soo cold. And i could swear I was sitting cross legged on cement or something just cold. Felt like my eyes were open but i it was pitch black. i felt alert but wasnt panicking just felt..clarity. I dont know if it was the psychical or spiritual or the drugs they were giving me but i swear i had a choice..I just all of a sudden knew i had a choice to go deeper or come back. I thought for what seemed a lonnng time about it...and ended up saying yes i wanna come back...then my eyes opened and the drs were all white. i had flatlined and came back. lol. Had a huge perfect heart shaped bruise on me from the adrenaline shot. kinda wish it stayed so id remember that feeling of wanting to live so bad. Anyways they told me they never checked because apparently nobody is ever allergic to this shit. few years later looked it up and theres a high risk of anapylactic shock from it. this is why hospitals scare me. that and i was there another time for morphine and apap n they were gonna give me the shit again lmao my friend kept telling them i have severe allergy to it but they tried to do it anyways until a lab tech checked my file and ripped the iv out. That was the most memorable near death ive had. Had a couple others but that one stcks in my mind the most. Ones kinda funny...maybe ill write it later but thats enough for now a lil bit of a TL/DR lol
 
I don't know if you'd say it was near death, but I took it pretty far.

Was wearing a 20µg/hr buprenorphine patch (equivalent to 80mg morphine daily; and also low enough dose so that other opioids can work), took 44mg of clonazepam, 60mg MS-Contin, and 50mg of seroquel. I'm not completely sure, but there might have been some tramadol and lyrica in the mix as well. Ended up blacking out in class and had to have a ride come get me. Brother-in-law walked me to couch and laid me down because he thought my breathing looked fine. In my sleep, I got up, pissed on the floor, then collapsed in it. When my parents found me they called paramedics where I spent the next 2 days in the hospital and an additional 5 days in an institution for suicide watch.
 
3 years ago, i was up for 2 days on meth, mixed heroin with xanax, OD'd. I was so disappointed with myself and felt very ashamed. I thank god to this day I survived.

Since everyone is telling an anecdote about an overdose or something stupid they did I figured I might aswell elaborate on mine.. (I know, not everyone in the thread almost died due to reckless actions, but you get the idea.)

Well anyway here goes:
The closest call was probably when I took 80mg oxy, 800mg tramadol, 360mg codeine, 150mg ethylmorphine, 250mg tilidine, 50mg pentazocine, 36mg bromazepam, 81mg flurazepam, 80mg diazepam, 10mg clonazepam, 10mg alprazolam, 10mg lorazepam, 10mg lormetazepam, 40mg prazepam, 50mg ethylphenidate, a few lines of cocaine (~250mg in total) and 50mg dextroamphetamines. The odd thing is, I didn't black out, I had a very euphoric nod and I felt great .. That's it. Nothing bad happened.

What a retard I was back then.. Unbelievable how I ever got to that point, but I was too drugged up to care. Bear in mind I was taking these amounts of benzos and oxy and tramadol every day. Though usually it was "only" 5mg xanax, 36mg bromazepam, 40mg diazepam, 2mg clonazepam, 2,5mg lorazepam and 4mg lormetazepam. The other ones I didn't take often. Needless to say my tolerance was off the charts. But mixing in these other opiates/oids and taking those huge amounts of extra benzos could've easily been the last thing I ever did.

I know full well I could've died any single night while I was on those high doses and not just this one in particular where I took even more than usual. My usual dose was more than enough to kill anyone if (s)he is unlucky. Actually I increased my doses & added stuff quite often back then, I recently found my old journal which had my daily intake from the period in it and I found this in it as the worst day every. It's really unbelievable reading that shit now. Up until I found it I thought my worst was something 'somewhat' similar in dosage range, but still quite a bit less than THIS.

Anyway, I survived and I'm clean from benzos and opiates so I'm a happy camper. :)

Never again will I do stupid shit like that !
