This last weekend I IV'd amphetamine probably about 5 times (50mg each time). I stayed up for probably about 50 or so hours. Eventually early this morning, I started feeling like I was going to throw up, I hadn't used amphetamine for a few hours at that point, so I thought it was withdrawal, so I IV'd again. About 20 minutes later, I started breathing really heavily, got very dizzy, rushed into the bathroom and threw up for around 30 minutes. I was freezing cold and shaking. I monitored my blood pressure for a while and made sure I didn't have to call an ambulance, so after about an hour I drank some water, took my pills that help me sleep, and went to bed. Sleep wasn't restful, probably woke up 10 or so times in the twelve hour period.

So did I overdose, or was it just exhaustion, or something else?

Thanks.

And yes, I do have a problem with amphetamine, I actually was in the middle of writing a post asking for help with my problem when I started throwing up.
 
'Overdose' is a fairly arbitrary term, there's no black line with drugs where you suddenly cross it and you're ODing. Did you take too much? Yeah, sounds like it.
