Help Antidepressants OD?

[jayceyyqo]

Would this dosage be enough to OD? I have about 1900mg of Venlafaxine and 550mg of Setraline. I have no idea if this is enough to get even close to OD. I know people advise against OD, but I barely have any other methods I can try and these are the only pills I can reliably get. Should I keep stockpiling them? If yes, how much should I have to be successful at an OD attempt? And should I combine something else with them to increase the chance of succession at my attempt?

They would not give depressed people bottles full of medications if ODs were that easy. It will not work. You will be very sick and possibly have serotonin syndrome, which is terrible.

Modern medications are made to be "safe" and very, very rarely lead to a successful death. It is not a recommended method.

Anti-depressants are among the worst medications to try to OD from. Besides serotonin syndrome as mentioned above, many are metabolized by the liver.

Venlafaxine OD especially can cause major damage to your liver and even cause it to fail. If the OD doesn't kill you, which it likely won't, you may wake up to a failing liver, which is a horrendous way to die. Days of agonizing pain and discomfort.

There are better ways. Not this one.
