I know you guys are gunna say in doubt call an ambulance, but I'd like to know what would the signs be blue lips before you pass out? I'm looking for signs for the user

And yes you guys are prolly wondering if I feel like I might od and yes I feel as though I may but don't want to call an ambulance for nothing. Should I be doin jumping jacks or something to raise my hr?
 
I'm really sketching myself out thinking I might od and have the phone on hand. I know you guys like I said will say call an ambulance but if I do fall out it won't be by much. I sniffed it so should I try an puke?
 
Its not your heart rate that is so concerning it is the fact the you do not get enough oxygen due to decreased respiration/breathing. I would think if you are able to sit here and compose the posts then you are ok for this moment. Do you have someone with you that will call in case you lose consciousness? That is super important. If not then if you are worried then you should probably call the ambulance.

And puking wont really do anything...you have already absorbed intranasally what you will...there is little BA orally or in your stomach if you will.
 
I'm at my dads and him and his gf are upstairs so they wouldn't know. My did will be home at some point tonight no idea when though. I really don't wanna call an ambulance unless really needed. Ik if fine for the moment but by the minute I'm getting higher and less breathing
 
Ok well anytime there is a question of whether it is a life or death emergency then you need to call an ambulance. Even being a nurse what am I possibly able to do for someone in this situation on the internet? You need to call ambulance now before you pass out. If you are counting on someone finding you in a little while then you will most likely be dead by then.
 
Well if you are gonna do that why not just go in and tell someone to watch for you. If you feel that your breathing is compromised then you really should just call an ambulance. Im not sure why you asked if you are not going to do it.
 
Hey, I hope I don't get crucified for this...but if you're still sending coherent messages to us, you're probably fine...

turning blue is a definite sign that you're not getting enough oxygen and ODing, but a lot of the time, if you slap someone or throw a little cold waer on 'em and get 'em moving, they're fine....

If I spot someone ODing...I can test within 10 seconds if it's an emergency...You shake 'em really hard, yell at them....If they come out of that and say "Oh hey! what?! what?!", but then keep slipping into the nod...you just keep waking them up periodically every few minutes until their levels go down...

If you yell, shake and slap someone and get no response whatsoever, that's when it's time for narcan or 911! even though, someone may be completely unresponsive for 10 minutes no matter what and then come out of it on their own, I won't make that call!

If you try for a solid minute-90 seconds to roué someone into a response and get nothing, CALL 911 no matter fucking what! when you're brain is deprived of oxygen, every second counts!

As far as judging warning signs in yourself to know when you're ODing?! that's a fucking joke! If you're doing enough heroin that you think it might kill you, the only thing that will save you is someone else!
 
Yeah I guess you guys are right but I think I'm just really jammed I did it at around 7:45 and it's 10 now. The od effects would be gone by now prolly right?
 
Just go for a walk.

You can't possibly be anywhere near incoherent if you are sendg the most precise post...

I think you have researched into the matter and are confusing minor things for major complications.

If you go to a public place other than the fire station, you will get police instead of the emt...
 
first thing I learned when I started heavy drugs as a young teen, an older person told me this:
"Whatever drug you're doing, if it ever crosses your mind for whatever reason, that you may be close to or possibly ODing, always stop. You are questioning what your body can take and if it's at it's limit." Works every time. If even for a second I get nervous, I don't brush it off...I'm just done.

Basically, you wouldn't be worried or even think about having too much if you were comfortable with how your body felt. So always quit when the question or thought of reaching your limit crosses your mind. I do 95% of the time. Other 5% is alcohol. Haha
