So I'm going to try to keep this as brief as possible and please ignore the formatting, I'm on mobile.

Im currently 27 and doing much better in life than I was just 2 years ago. Aside from this persistent morning sickness ( I'm a guy ) that my G.I doctors still cannot figure out. I wake up almost everyday having to vomit bile or heave for 20 minutes. I get through it with marijuana. Since I was 18 I had been a very heavy drinker, I try to avoid it now since I tend to get sick easier now from it.

Anyway, November 2017 I was taking my prescribed lyricia daily for diabetic neuropathy in my feet ( I'm a type 1 diabetic ) and I was taking Hydros because I had recently had a fifth testicular operation. I'll be be honest I abused them both. The lyricia sometimes caused me to have a seizure or seizure like symptoms. I don't really remember what happened but I remember parts. I evidently overdosed on Hydros, It isn't something I would do intentionally and I can only guess I kept forgetting I had taken it already.

My girlfriend walked into our bathroom and found me on the floor, my skin was grey and I was only having agonal breaths. I was told later on they used a defibrillator on me. I had gone somewhere like 3 or 4 minutes without breathing. It terrified my family and my girlfriend they were unsure if I would live through the night and if I did they were sure I would have brain damage. They kept me in a coma for a week.

When I woke up I discovered my left hand didn't work anymore and I was told it was radial nerve palsy and it would go away eventually... I still can't feel or move my thumb and index finger. I also had third degree burns across both of my ass cheeks. It was determined when I was in my bathroom I had the hairdryer on and essentially cooked myself. The healing process was absolute hell but now I just have scars ( think Zuko from The Avatar but my whole ass )

This might not be the right place to talk about all that but I haven't ever gotten it off my chest like that.
