i took a shot of heroin around 130am it is now almost 3. I have been clean for quite some time and just wanted to get high one time. I know what this drug does long term to me and made an honest decision not to continue, just to use every blue moon, i used very small amounts at a time to be sure not to od, but it was not the best stuff ever, so after not really being that high after a few small shots, i waited an hour or so and thats when i took a larger one at 130. i felt fine at first but now started nodding hard about an hour later, been nodding hard for the last half hour. my question is if i go to sleep, is an overdose possible? how long until i know im in the clear? i would hate to go to sleep and never wake up, have someone find me dead in my bed.... i know that not all overdoses are immediate so i want to know how long should i wait before laying down and going to bed for the night.

im faded as shit, i have to close one eye to be able to read, cant even read a whole page online without nodding, been trying to read about overdoses but cant keep eyes open long enough to finish a page.... sorry guys and thatnk you for your time.
 
note, during active addiction i made it my goal to get this faded, however after not using for 5 months (did use once around 2 1/2 months) i am just a little nervous.

thanks again, and the sooner the response the better, im passing out now, if i need to stay awake, i need to get up and start moving..
 
Maybe seek medical attention? Have any naloxone?
We can't undue the drugs you did over the computer.
When I OD'd on dope the few times i did there is no way i would even keep my eyes open for a minute before my ex would slap me in the face to keep me awake, nevermind be able to type a post on a computer.
If you're scared than get help IRL.
 
its 530 and im still kicking it, i got up and walked around and stuff just to be sure, i just got a little scared cause what i could keep my eyes open to read said that majority of ods happen 1-3 hours after injection, only 17 or somthing percent die immediately so I was hoping if anyone knew from experience, like if you thought you were cool and next thing you know your in the hospital waking up. my bad people, i just tripped for a minute, i was already nervous about using and i did like 4 tiny shots and just felt okay so once it started wearing off i did a shot like double all 4 of those, and i was just afraid of nodding too hard and not waking up......

oh and it took me awhile to type that, and to correct what was wrong, ect. i fell out quite a few times while typing it.

thanks though, and sorry for sounding kinda newbish, i just felt like the way i used to try to get during active addiction, and its been awhile, i havent nodded in at least 5 months, and only used once in the last 5 months, today was second time, and its been over 2 months since last use. I dont wanna go back where i came from, but like the last time i used, it held me over for awhile until i wanted to again, just like your normy going out for drinks, i figure 3-4 times a year i can get high if im careful, i just wasnt as carful this time.

Im alive though, like i though i would, again, just wanted assurance that everything was cool....
 
It's possible to slip into a coma/stop breathing from falling asleep during a heavy nod and die, yes. I will add though that any time I've OD'd I'd become irrationally afraid of falling asleep and dying but it never happened, I think that's just instinctual.
