Ash19 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 So just over a week ago I got a little drunk and emotional and ended up taking an overdose. I spent the next two days in hospital completely out of my mind (like, more than usual). I was hallucinating non-stop, as if it was a full-blown episode. I was confused, I had no idea where I was. I could hardly move because my muscles were so weak and uncoordinated. To top it all off, my heart rate was 160bpm at resting. Physically, I was fine within a few hours. I was put on a drip for whatever was going on (I cannot remember anything), and was attached to a heart monitor to make sure I didn't go into cardiac arrest, but that was it. Mentally, I was completely disorientated. I can't even explain how massively confusing it all was. I didn't know where I was, what was going on, what had happened. I couldn't even remember what I had taken. I don't know what point I'm trying to make but just don't fuck with SSRIs. Or any psych meds for that matter. Or any meds at all. God, I don't know just stay safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Discomfort Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Yeah, ditto, glad you're doing better now. That sounds like hell. I don't expect you need me to tell you this but try to be a little more careful with your alcohol now on. Well done for getting through it though.
