How do you get several pills down at once to take an overdose?

I recommend you crush them and dilute them in water.
It will get in your bloodstream faster. It will be extremely bitter though.

good advice. A pestle and mortar is a good thing to crush pills with.

Please bear in mind that a lot of OD's fail- although I guess it depends on what you have. I don't honestly know much about it- only that it isn't as effective as we're lead to believe in films etc. All I would say is to check and also be aware of what might happen if you fail. Possible longterm liver damage etc.

You probably know more than me though to be honest.

I crushed them into a smoothie so the texture and taste wouldn't bother me as much.

Very true. The movies make it look easy. It really depends on what pills you are crushing. Good point there!

To take 1-20 pills at once I have always drank about half a mouthful of water but kept it in my mouth then I tilt my head backwards, put as many pills as the water will hold and quickly swallow. you have to properly open your throat wide and fast to swallow them all with the water or it will be like a pill explosion at the back of your throat/tonsils and you most likely won't want to do it again as it turns your stomach.

I could never drink horrible crushed up pill water id rather do the above, it really depends what you can stomach. Overdoses are shit and haven't worked for me but good luck.

that sounds like a choking hazard to be honest.

Some people are just better at swallowing pills that others. I've always had a hard time and can barely swallow, one large pill, but my mom can down at least five pills at once.

I like the idea though of crushing them up and drinking them with water. If I ever get the pills I want I'll definitely try that.

Yeah that's a possibility. I haven't choked yet and I've been doing it for years. Every night I take 5 pills 2 hours before bed and I don't even feel them go down doing it this way.

Crush them. You can buy pill crushers. I wouldn't be able to swallow loads of pills as I have a gag reflex and I'm certain I'd end up vomiting

Just FYI only 3% of suicide attempts with pills succeed. High failure rate. Tried twice myself with heavy opiates and tons of them
With benzodiazepines and sleeping pills enough to knock out a cow and I still survived. Lots of people end uo
With brain damage too so Research more options as pills just likely won't do the job unless it's laced with fentanyl.

My current method is propranolol OD.. for some reason I feel pretty confident in it but I should really acknowledge that overdoses don't always work

I'm really sensitive to all types of medication and it's guaranteed I'll get all the side effects listed in the leaflet so .. I'm sort of thinking that an OD might work for me. I don't know

Propanolol some will likely only give you a deep sleep and chances of brain damage if brain gets below 80% oxygen too lomg. I've seen these survivors and it's hell
To see them suffering and being taken care of as they can't do much for themselves . Please research more as this has a high fail rate . Just be aware . I was stupid and tried myself . So that is why I'm warning ya !

I've overdosed 3 times with propranolol and quetiapine and I'm still here no damage what so ever. You'll most likely be found and spend a few days in intensive care then back to square one, there a far better methods. Best of luck

I'm thinking around 6 grams .. I've started to hoard them, I get it on prescription. Will this not be enough?

Thanks. Honestly just don't bother, I don't think any amount will kill someone unless your not found for days on end and don't wake up.
The only good thing about it is the overdose wasn't painful or stressful at all for me I just fell asleep. I don't remember being sick but there was a lot of sick when I was found. It's messy and doesn't work.

I took them one at a time with no issue. Didn't even feel like long, was a blur.

Does it matter the meds? I have about 360 pulls to take, muscle relaxers, blood pressure medicine, seroquil, prazosin, lyrica. I plan on creating a mixed drink to take them all. Crushing makes them work quicker
