Was this a heroin overdose? If not, what was it?

[timmmz]

Hey guys,

So I recently shot up what seemed like a normal amount of H, well within what my tolerance allows me to use. It really wasn't even overly good product. Right after I was done shooting up, and was done cleaning everything up, I felt a few rushes from my upper chest up to my head. My finger tips went a little tingly, and my lips tingled very minorly. I did feel a little foggy and def felt like I could nod off if I wanted to, but it wasn't so bad that I couldn't stay awake. I also felt like my arms and legs were more jello-y than normal. I never felt my breathing was labored really, I did notice I was concentrating on breathing more, but I think it's because I thought I was ODing and knew I needed to keep breathing. For about 2 hours I would occasionally feel a small rush sweep over me and was terrified I was ODing and just stayed in my bathroom feeling terrible about myself until the feelings subsided. I also occasionally felt cold and clammy, but it would come in waves. I read over other acounts of overdose, and mine doesn't seem to match up with anyone else's. I'm not sure what it was, but I've been doing this for long enough to know that it certainly wasn't what I was used to feeling. Was this an OD? It seriously freaked me out and it was a miserable night.

Hmmm... textbook heroin overdose is caused by respiratory depression and since you say your breathing was no more labored than your usual H rushes, I wouldn't say it was HEROIN overdose but maybe it was what the H that you got was cut with. And as you said it wasn't good quality either. Unless you've used this same cut of this particular H I highly doubt it's a Heroin overdose. And plus you took just enough for your tolereance, not a larger than usual amount, AND it didn't feel anymore better than just barely what your tolereance allows.

(I'm assumuming so from how you said it, correct me if I'm wrong.)

I really can't quite put my hands on what else it might have been, I.E what it could have been cut with to cause this. Almost sounds like a weaker opiate overdose, like hydrocodone or even codeine overdose(WILD ASSUMPTION not a random guess!!) But again I have a very faint ideas as to what else could have caused this, because this is NOT heroin overdose, or at least not one I've ever heard of. It may be possible that it's an acute near heroin overdose specific to your body. As in you're body just had a very particular and rare overdose reaction. Again don't take my word on it. But if this happens again with a different cut of H or a better quality I would almost be certain your body just has an acute and rare/odd, reaction to H OD. I'd be careful if you're planning to shoot up again, at least try to take a slightly smaller dose. I'll emphasize one last time, this is not a professional diagnoses lol just the extent of my knowledge on H OD, and I cannot be even half sure telling you whether this is a very rare H OD reaction or something else all together. There's just not enough pieces to the puzzle. Seriously be careful if you plan on doing it again, you'd need a professional analysis on your shitty encounter with whatever that was to actually get a definite answer, can't do that over the internet haha. Be cautious, and goodluck.
