My first time I tried Oxy I railed a little over 20mg+ pure oxy hcl. I have a low body weight.

That was like 4 months ago. Now I am concerned that It may have caused permanent damage like brain damage or depersonalization.

Is that possible?
 
I'd say it's highly unlikely.

Have you ever suffered from depression and anxiety? Have you been using other drugs other than the one time on oxy?

No, it's more likely those are coming from some sort of coincident stress in your life. Opioids are amazingly safe drugs even with chronic usage; generally you only see depersonalization if they are linked to stressful event or you've got a long-term addiction.
 
In short: I really don't think that it is very likely a 20mg dose of oxycodone would cause brain damage and/or depersonalization, especially 4 months after the fact. It is a little high for a first time dose especially if you have a low body weight, but it probably just made you feel sick. Opiates are generally pretty safe.

^this.

Thank you for (clearing) that up, for all to read
That's a very intelligent & educated answer

Most people dont know this, but like sekio said, opiates by themselves are very very safe and easy on your body. The only negative effects are overdose and addiction. Other than that they are very easy on your organs. The danger is that most opiates have tylenol or ibuprofen in them which makes them harder on your body. In the case of heroin, by itself it is safe like other opiates but its the cut that might cause harm to your body.

Clean heroin is quite hard on your veins...

You hit the nail on the head. Yeah sorry guys I'm being an ultra hypochondriac lately. It's a pattern that always happens during high levels of stress.

And right now I am experiencing an extremely high level of college stress/burn out. I was smoking weed everyday by myself which only compounded things for me but I've been clean of drugs for over a week now and I tapered off big time before that. It's funny how anxiety can twist the hell out of your mind and soul. Thanks for the responses they calmed me down.

How so? I would think that someone injecting pharmaceutical grade heroin with a new needle every time, as well as rotating injection sites, wouldn't have any issues with their veins that are unique to heroin.
