I got high on coke and MDMA and gave myself phosgene gas poisoning when I hit a speed bump in my car

I don't know a whole lot about Phosgene, but I just watched this video the other day on it. And it does seem like a small amount can be dangerous. Here is the YouTube link if you are interested... Did you say this was a long time ago or relatively recent? If you are still experiencing negative symptoms I would recommend seeing a doctor and ask about possible exposure to Phosgene. (I'm not sure of your economic situation and if a doctor is affordable or not, I also have no idea how the New Zealand healthcare system works). Regardless, I hope that you make a full recovery and have good health.

Best wishes!

This was about 10 years ago. Whatever damage was done, is done. I wouldn't want to know how fucked I am tbh. I don't think my level of exposure was so high that I did anything drastic to my health but who knows. It was enough exposure to disable me temporarily and have me spewing on the side of the road barely able to see.

But I've been told it's most likely a panic attack despite no history of them and I'm being too aggressive so I'll just leave it. I just wanted to share this story so others can show caution if they are ever in a similar situation. But alas, there's no danger apparently so don't worry about it guys. Huff and chuff away.

I didn't realise I was treating it like an attack? Simply giving retorts and responses to other peoples theories. Some of which are just plain stupid which they refused to back up when asked for more detail?

But if how I'm writing isn't polite enough, guess I'll just say accept someones opinion that doesn't hold water as fact and move on. It was a panic attack. I'm wrong. Don't be careful smoking cigarettes near leaking refrigerant gas. Everything was in my head and totally coincidental. Including blurry vision. The mechanic was wrong and knows nothing about cars.

The end.

Man, it was a general thing. I skimmed the thread and thought “hope this thread stays civil.” So I brought it up. We all do stupid shit when we’re high. The original story is entertaining.

Na I'm done with this thread. Tried to share a story, all I've had is people essentially call me a liar despite them having fuck all knowledge of the subject or give me shit for something I gave myself shit for and didn't endorse at all - as if I was bragging or something.

All I wanted was to share something that hurt me so that others wouldn't be hurt. What have I got in return? Bunch of shitty comments directed at me, or doubts/denial, or you telling me to chill out. Fuck this.

If this was written a bit differently by a more glamorized character like Charles Bukowski or Hunter S Thompson the response would be different. This is an anybodies web forum and attacking peoples characters without referendum to anything else to set an example by is common as day.

Driving while intoxicated is bad. Yep.

The gas, which is the main thing which was put up to be discussed. I don’t know. I have a feeling @negrogesic probably knows what he is talking about. Then again, the OP believes this sincerely for a reason. Maybe he’s under the influence. Maybe he was really poisoned this way. Maybe someone relayed it to him this way, mistakenly, but that’s a genuine reason to believe it was this way.

Maybe he’s still in a gas dream and this thread is merely resultant of sthe echoes of a phosgene coma. The wreck of the vehicle which contains his soul in such a twisted steel coffin will truly blare cacophonous tales into his imaginary space as his respiratory system is whittled away by smoke and poison gas. We are merely a subset of his conscience screaming, “why did you drive like dui, yo, why.”
