Was I about to overdose?

I was doing Coke one time, and I had been doing it all night when I felt like this...

I was sitting on the floor and i was staring straight @ a picture and i had just planned on staring at it for a little while trying to figure out who it was... but i winded up just zoning off staring at it... my boyfriends friend was sitting next to me, and my boyfriend was behind me... he got my boyfriends attention my boyfriend by whispering his name, and pointing at me. my boyfriend got off of his chair and, knelled down behind me and asked if everything was okay... I wanted to say "yeah, I'm fine." but, i felt like I couldn't talk... i just shook my head barley and still stared straight off at the picture. Then i heard the talking about teenagers having heart attacks from doing this stuff, but that was not what they were talking about at all... The had talked about that before we did the coke... every word that was in their conversation from earlier i was hearing come out of their mouths... What they where really talking about was how much coke my boyfriend did that night. I was still staring off at this picture... feeling unable to move... everything went white and i heard a loud crash and turned around very quickly too see my boyfriend going into convulsions on the floor... i thought he was just kidding for two reasons... one, what i thought they were talking about and two, another friend that was there asked "is he joking around" ... he wasn't "joking around" he really went into convulsions... I think that i was about to go into SOMETHING right before he did, and when he went i think it stopped me.. I just want someone to try and explain what happened to me and, wether or not i was close to that happening to me. Just please let me know.
 
Sometimes paranoia can cause convulsions due to an elavated heartbeat. Did you do a similar dose? without specific info its hard to tell. The best thing to do is keep calm.
 
it was my first time to do coke.. my boyfriend did 4 in a half grams... (hes done it alot) and i did probally 2in a half grams.. not that much, but it was my first time, and this was very good coke... i may not seem to know what im talking about when i say "good coke" but everyone else there that night knew what "good coke" was and they seemed to think that it was very strong.
 
2 1/2 grams is a lot of coke for someone who has never done it before. you prolly shouldnt do that much very soon. do less, and you prolly wont have problems. take care.
 
were you snorting it? i don't believe it is terribly easy to OD from snorting cocaine, but it can happen.

it sounds as if you worked yourself up and became paranoid. i don't think you were about to OD.

if it scared you though and was uncomfortable, why not try using a bit less next time?
 
Cocaine overdose

Seriously, stress less.

This is the second thread you have started about did I/or didn't I/was i on the verge of ODing on coke. No one can tell you if you were about to suffer a serious OD or if you were just flipping out. But more importantly, you're not dead, you didn't have a heart attack, you know it was an unpleasant experience. Learn from it, use coke in moderation in the future and stop prolonging unecessary anxiety.
 
I wasnt stressing that night.. like i said it was my FIRST time doing coke... I didnt know how much i could do or anything! to be honest i didnt care... i didnt think any thing would happen to me! I didnt become nervous about coke untill i saw what happend to my boyfriend... I do coke alot more often now... and i get nervous that somethings gonna happen now! I wasnt stressed that night or nervous, but maybe i should have been.
 
damn, 2 1/2 grams is alot of coke.
I do coke like once a month a good potent gram last me like 6 hours or the rest of the night
 
I ODed once and here is what happened... I took the shot, then I woke up on the floor with my dog whining at me, since I was alone I don't know what happened. I have seen a dude "fish" that is flop like a fish.

I am thinking that you were just amped out, too much stimulation will make your body kinda shut down. The staring off into space thing is a definate clue. I have done meth before and then kinda sleep, well, not really sleep, but I couldn't move, talk, nothing and then I would come around after some of the effects wore off.

You will figure out your limit, and it will be much more enjoyable, just take it easy and have fun, don't be such a pig and don't try to keep up with more experienced users.
 
yeah man i totally know about that whole thing where you just cant move and end up just sitting or staring. The first time it happened to me was after doing an 8ball in a few hours between friends. I think I ended up doing around 2.75 grams myself. I was blowin lines and smoking premo's like crazy, and by the end of the night when i came home it took me like and hour to get from my car to my bedroom which isnt that damn far at all. I was just staring at shit outside for like a good thirty minutes, then i finally got inside but i was moving so slow. To me, that clearly was the definition of cracked out.
 
I think that staring or sort of vacant feeling that comes (usually at the end LOL) of a coke binge is depletion of neurotransmitters. Nothing left to fire. I have had that several times. And the danger in ODing when snorting is really more when binging rather than a quick OD.
 
Doesn't sound like a coke od at all.
Sounds like you just had a good time :)

^^lol... Funny guy!
it was pretty fun coke has a good high, but it wasnt fun anymore when i saw my boyfriend Od.


two in a half grams didn't seem like that much that night.. and, it wasnt all at one time.. it was over the night... I did a line about every 30 to 45 mins. I probally was just cracked out... I used to do meth ALOT and I KNOW EXACTLY how that geeked out feeling is... but everything eventually went white... I DID feel that geeked out feeling, and BLAH i hated it! I was just a little curios... id like to know more about this stuff, that's all.


I've got another question... If someone does overdose on coke, how do you "bring them back" (I mean unless their SERIOUSLY, prolly gonna die and they need to go to the hospital, theres nothing u can do) when my boyfriend Od'd someone (who knew what they were doing... they were also alot older) pored water on the back of his neck and he just jumped up, and felt it and sat there a good while before he could get up.. walk around and talk.
