Thanksgiving, took a bottle of 30 500MG extra strength tylenol. NOTHING HAPPENED

Last night, while coming down from meth, took about 40 200MG Ibuprofen. fell asleep WOKE UP FINE

WHAT THE FUCK

So I took 60 75MG Indocin SR, drank a 12 OZ bottle of cough syrup with tylenol, DXM, and Doxy in it. Been almost an hour and feeling nothing. This fucking sucks, WHY WON'T GOD LET ME DIE?!?!? :X

This is really starting to piss me off.

So I'm think might as well shoot up anything that's under my sink, THAT HAS TO WORK RIGHT?!

Anyways, will the aforementioned combo probably be the one that makes me kick?

Goddamn I wish I just had a gun or more drugs that I could OD on! Suicide is fucking stupid ass hard work I guess what bullshit
 
I've been in your place...I also feel like I've tried a few times and it SHOULD have worked, but it didn't, and I don't know why. The way I see it though, I survived for a reason. this is really weird for me to say because I'm not at all religious and don't believe in people having some sort of purpose in the world or anything, but I figure, if I'm alive when I shouldn't be, there must be a reason - there must be some answer as to why I'm still here, something I can make out of it. I'd encourage you to try and think in the same way, it really does help and it gives you a reason to go on.
 
maybe take it as a sign that you aren't meant to leave this wretched place yet. Some people die so easily and others seem to have 9 lives or more.
 
That is exactly how I feel. I feel a wee woozy, but I think it's just the alcohol in the cough syrup. I have a feeling I'm going to survive this, which means I feel I probably am not meant to die yet. But I'm just gonna go back to shooting meth anyways. So God has picked the wrong person to look over lolz

Why not choose to not use methamphetamine? It's really hard on the body and the effects wear off rather quickly when you're used to doing it. You can always quit if you want to. I'm really glad I quit using that drug entirely.
 
I can't be happy without it. I'm already 5 months into outpatient court ordered and they're gonna reccomend residential. I know that I am going to break soon psychotically so I just ww

Why do you think that? It sounds like you are experiencing post-usage depression, which isn't uncommon with methamphetamine users sadly.

I haven't really had that bad of a time since quitting but I have heard many people who have.

5 months is amazing progress man, congratulations on not using for 5 months. That's not easy when you are depressed.

Try to keep your chin up - eventually you'll feel better having quit. It might take longer than 5 monoths, but it'll be worth the wait.
 
I have a feeling that this isn't going to work -_____- Guess this is some life reorganizing bullshit, but this aint no way to live at 18 years of age

Residential might be a good idea. The friends of mine who struggled with quitting on their own and who eventually had the best long-term success were those who did a long stint in a therapeutic community and whose return to independent living happened in a staged manner.
 
i've tried to kill myself lots of times and failed it's just not my time to die yet and no i'm not religious and i don't think i'm here for a reason it's just not my time to die yet
 
You're way too young to have any idea what could become of your life. Please don't do it. I have a few people in my life who commited suicide around your age and trust me when I say this every one of them left behind something worth living for. Your problems will pass, and it's possible to turn things around.
 
Liver failure from acetaminophen can be delayed by up to two weeks.

You have a decision to make Phase... if you think there might be a chance you can make something of your life, go ER, NOW.

I can't stop you from offing yourself, nobody here can... but you're only 18, and as someone who was in your exact position at your exact age (s/meth/heroin/), believe me when I say there really is more to life than you think.

I sincerely hope we see you around here again and that you survive this. :)
 
Phase a lot of people who say they can't be happy without drugs/alcohol only give themselves a few days- two weeks sober and come to that conclusion. It takes time to enjoy sobriety, it took me around 60 days before the fog cleared and I started realizing that my efforts to get sober weren't in vain. For the first time in 10 years I feel truly free and alive. Getting sober changed my entire perspective on life. I realized how selfish and self-absorbed I had become. I truly saw myself, deeply, and it upset me so much that I reached out to God begging him to change me. Deep down I was a jealous hateful person that didn't give a rip about other people, even my Mom and other family members. I realized I found satisfaction in next to nothing, and had to keep drinking/using everyday just to feel relief. I was trapped. I had habits that controlled me and I used meth, cocaine and other uppers which led to massive panick attacks and ER visits. Why would I put myself through that? Because something within me was not right.

I'll promise you this. If you want an amazing high and a journey unlike anything you've ever experienced put down the meth pipe and start discovering who you are and what your capable of. Start with very small achievable steps like going on a walk, saving some money, giving a compliment to someone. And just keep at it day after day. The longer you stay sober the more revelations will come to you and your perspective will change. You will come alive and the lights will turn on. You'll start thinking about what you want to do with your life and who you want to be. You'll maybe even realize that your life isn't near as bad as it seemed, it was just your messed up perception from the drugs telling you that you wanted to die.

Please don't sell yourself short. Don't let the drugs/demons/evil forces that are leading you to want to kill yourself win. If your at the point of killing yourself why not give God a chance to save you? If you don't believe in God then test him. Pray out and say "God, I don't believe in you. But just for the hell of it I'm going to ask you to save me. If you care about me or if your true, then prove it to me." TC can you please do this for me before you next try to kill yourself? Please do this for me if you at all appreciate the support/help I'm trying to give you.

I ask you to do this because I believe only God can save us once we've reached the point you have. And you have nothing to loose by reaching upwards and outwards for help. God helped me, and now my life is overflowing with love, hope, healthy relationships, financial blessings, etc. You can have all of this also if you will only believe that God wants to give it to you. There is a God and he loves you. If you don't believe in God put him to the test. I think you'll be surprised at what he can do with his mighty hand. He is the Great Redeemer and is quick to rescue broken people and rebuild them and give them a blessed new life for his glory. Jesus saves.
 
I'm glad I didn't die. Perhaps it is time to grow up and stop wallowing in self pity. I want a clean room. I want to use my car. I want to function normally at college and get a girlfriend.

About an hour ago, I was informed by my counselor at outpatient that I have been terminated from the program due to multiple dirty tests (mostly for weed though, lol). Normally I would FREAK THE FUCK OUT, especially since I have used benzos everyday for quite some time now, but ran out about 3 days ago, so most would be expecting me to have the biggest panic attack ever. But I am tired of living in fear of everything. And I turned to drugs out of fear.

I need to grow the fuck up. Looking at that statement "I can't be happy without meth blah blah blah" makes me feel like a whiny princess lol. But seriously, I thank you guys so much for your support. It's gonna be tough, but I want normality dammit!

Thank you all!
And I am so happy to be alive.
 
There's probably a reason why you're alive. Try to be thankful for your life and make something good out of it. :)

Came in to say exactly this, more than likely there's a reason you're still alive. Try and find it.

Edit: Damn, I should really read all the posts in threads before I post, but either way i'm glad you have that attitude. Anything is possible.

^This^ hard. You hear it all the time, and to an extent it becomes true. Abuse your DOC for long enough and the changes in brain chemistry are so profound that it really does feel like you can't ever be happy without it but it's a simple consequence of drug use. Luckily the brain is remarkably resilient and will heal itself in pretty much every case, so long as you give it enough time. Phase, you WILL recover. You WILL find that joy in life is possible again. You may need some help to get there as far as other meds go, chances are you'll get there at some point without them anyways. Counselling or CBT are very effective for many, if not most people if you find you need to switch up your thinking patterns so as not to keep talking yourself down, which it seems you've realised you're doing reading recent posts today.

Please, please, please do not ever again try killing yourself with paracetamol. It is a truly wretched, prolonged and intensely painful way to die. It will not be immediate, we're talking a fortnight. Often people regret the attempt almost immediately but are nevertheless condemned to a slow, lingering, painful death while their loved ones watch on. Please, do not do that to yourself, or them.
