Greetings!

I would like to use my first post on these forums to share a trip of sorts...I would also like to say that I am not writing this as an anti-drug protest or rant. I had always tried to be safe. This is just the story of my downfall from drugs.

Sept 2003,

I start to feel the itch, the one that creeps up and wants a high of any sort. I am 18, I am an addict. I work at a cafe. The entire staff uses besides maybe the owner. Feeling the craving for an opioid buzz and fresh out of anything to satisfy myself, I use my break to pick up the essentials for the night. Something cheap, something that will work. I go to the store and pick up many ounces of poppys. After bringing them back to work and getting them ready with my manager we begin to make ourselves some tea.

The feeling is familiar. The same as always, what I was looking for. I feel I am a better worker, more talkative, more relaxed, more buzzed. Shift over. I feel that I have had enough tea for the night and feel the need to make some cherry kool-aid instead with my cheap buzz for the night. I end up drinking the rest of what we had made that day. Vomiting outside of my house. All better now. I am buzzed to no end, laying on the couch, eyes closed relaxed as could be. My cheaper version of oxys. My homemade cherry flavored opium. I have plans for tomorrow, better get some rest.

I am digging in the ancient pyramid. The scenery is amazing. Digging up artifacts. I am in space, magnetic devices floating above me, most peculiar. I am in a whore house looking for drugs. Somehow wal-mart and microsoft have teamed up and are in control of the country. I want ice, something cold, moisture of any kind. These are my lucid dreams brought on by the history channel. This is all happening not when I am in the coma (7 days to be exact), but the week after I have snapped out of it laying in my hospital bed.

They said I was not going to live. They wanted to take the support off. They said if I were to live that I would be "brain dead", unable to walk, talk, eat, think. My hospital stay was around 100 days, learning to walk, learning to talk, learning to eat.

So poppy seeds put you in a coma? If so, thats fucked, and I'm glad that you seem to be better these days(or at least well enough to write this TR).
 
Woah! What put you in the coma?

Fix the title when you get a chance...

Damn! A poppy seed coma? You're a lucky one for surviving...

I fixed your report title to adhere to the format mentioned at the top of the forum. Welcome to Bluelight!
 
Wait.....what? I find this hard to believe? I've been drinking poppy seed tea for years now, and its never done anything to me that any other opoid hasn't ever done. Did you take or eat anything else? Did you get these seeds from your same vendor? Something seems wrong about this, and a little worrisome.
 
It took me a good month while in the hospital to track down what had caused me to fall into the coma. My manager verified that it was the night after the poppy seeds that it had happend. During the months prior to this evening I had done many different drugs ranging from; 5-meo-dmt, cocaine, hydroco, xanax, ativan, weed, salvia the list goes on.

The morning when I was sent to the hospital my father had come home on a lunch break and had read my note that I had left to wake me up and he was unable to. He said he checked my pupils and they were pinpoint. It was classified as a narcotic overdose (no shit). The Dr's thought I had taken a whole mess of drugs all at once because of what they found in my blood stream. I also had pneumonia. Another explanation for the coma would be that I had vomited while sleeping and choked on my own vomit. I had used around 20 ounces of poppy seeds when I had made the batch and from what I can gather I must have drank most of the mix. It was also my first time using this brand of seeds.

Thanks all for the warm welcome =D

Oh and I made a 100% recovery. Should have seen the look on the faces of the people in ICU when I walked into the room with a physical therapist.
 
I'm happy you made it back to 'reality'.

Stay safe, man, stay safe...
 
damn! I'll have to be carefull, as I too work at a cafe and enjoy seedtea, AND HISTORY CHANNEL!
I had a pound once(and halfs with grapefruit juice/cats claw) survived and got gay sex the next morning. I would reccomend noobs start out with one ounce. Also, I am not much of an addict as i will get high on datura or the like and then spend aloted money for dopetea on muffins and then forget.
 
Wow, good to hear you made it. You are certainly a good writer for someone who is "brain dead", IMO.

yuppu: PST gets you gay sex?! I know I'll be drinking some PST tomorrow! =D
 
Well, I may be a hardcore case as I smoke cannabis!
I once also drink poppy seed tea half pound with a scratched fentanyl patch on, a used one in my stomach, vicodens, gabapentins, with some burgmangsia tea...
The only thing that i worried about was striking up conversations with people(I was badly injured and for some reason 7 old friends wanted to see what I had been thinking lately) who where imaginary, so i flipped on the mp3 and just my luck, there where no imaginary convos. I did however over sleep and wake up with burry eyes.

I also had pneumonia.
A surprisingly little-known risk from any/all chronic opiate usage. Shallower breathing + weaker immune system = increased susceptibility to lung infections.

Glad you made it out alive, BTW.
 
thats crazy. glad to hear youre alive man. the potency of a certain batch varies greatly you can have bunk seeds or rediculously potent seeds. how much in grams do you think you consume. people usually recomend 300 to 600 grams. one things for sure poppy seed tea is notorious for not being able to find a good doseage you can definatley vouch for that with youre experience.
 
oh wait i read its 20 ounces so thats only about 560 grams. wow thats rediculous ive done 600 grams soaked in grapefruit juice on top of that and didnt get high at all. i definatley dont want what happened to you happen to me i think ill just stick to opiates and real opium either that or try 200 grams my next time if there is one
 
^^ hell fuckin yeah


i drink tea from over double that and dont even feel a tingle...so dissapointing
 
it depends on the brand.

the seeds i used to buy are now washed, but before had a large portion of pod chunks and dust mixed in, even with a decent tolerance for opiates 3/4 of a lb of these had me fuuuuked up crawling around the house to much surprise, and honest fright!

be careful!

There is no mystery, the combination of a new batch of seeds which was obviously extremely potent and the pneumonia caused you to OD and nearly die from shallow breathing. As is common with poppy seeds you don't get the full effect until several hours after ingestion, at which point you may be asleep.

Everyone for your own safety do not take opiates if you have pulmonary trouble, and everytime you try a new batch or brand of seed start with 1/4 to 1/3 of a pound, don't take more then a pound at once the first time!
 
Good to hear you made it. :)
How did your folks react? Still dancing with drugs?

OT:
