Method Even if opioid OD is not that reliable, is it at least almost riskless to just try?

I could get like over 500mg of oxycontin pills tomorrow. If I eat them all at once, what's the worst that can happen if I don't die? I just vomit?

The opioid overdose stops you from breathing and someone finds you in time to get help. The lack of oxygen to your brain has caused permanent and irreversible brain damage.

No. Worst that could happen after an incomplete opioid OD is you fall asleep weird, lose circulation in your limbs (likely making you an amputee), partially asphyxiate on vomit or slow breathing enough to cause serious brain damage but not kill you, and spend the rest of your long, miserable life barely aware of your surroundings, unable to comprehend the source of your pain but experiencing it nonetheless.

Although, I think that if you take steps to prevent vomiting (i.e. taking AEs, crushing the pills into powder), it is highly unlikely that you'd survive a metric fuckton of oxy like that. IIRC just 30mg of oxy is a standard dose in hospice.

I did some research and like one other person already said, brain damage seems to be the biggest risk. Tbh, I dont think that there is any method that won't have serious risks after a failed attempt :/ much love to u though <3

Another thing for you to consider is that prescription opioids often have some drug added to discourage usage at recreational or lethal doses. 100mg of oxy is NOT a bad place to start, and virtually guarantees a painless death, but you need to use the OD in combination with something else like suffocation, drowning, hypothermia, etc. And it's harder to time such a situation correctly since you have pills instead of powder.

I think you should try to see if the pills are crushable and rectally bioavailable. You can get wasted, tie a bag over your head, and inject up your butt. Then it's goodnight.

No!!
I worked in a state hospital for many years.
We had patients who OD'd on opiates and were complete vegetables, bedridden & totally Dependant on others for all care. Many even lost control of bowel & bladder as well as speach.
I really wouldn't play on that street if I were you.
I can't even imagine being stuck in a body & mind that no longer functions properly! Please think this through. I'm sorry life has brought you to this point
