When I was 13 I impulsively took 28 of my levothyroxine tablets lmao, didn't do much at all. Stayed in A&E overnight.
Then I took 40 paracetamol when I was 16 and ended up in A&E again for 2 nights throwing up all the first night on a drip (must have thrown up at least 30 times that night).
I've had various more paracetamol attempts but I could never hold them down long enough and ended up vomiting them up too fast (probably psychological after the first attempt and how sick I was) but ended up in A&E nevertheless.
Last summer when I was 18 I overdosed and took 4000mg of Quetiapine (antipsychotic) I was prescribed impulsively, got taken to A&E, put on a drip, passed out during a chest x ray within an hour of being there and subsequently woke up 3 days later with no memory of any of it, apparently they'd been trying to wake me the entire time but I was completely flat out sedated. Got kept in another night because of the risk of a heart attack then I got released but sectioned into the psych ward that weekend having only gotten out of the psych ward 2 weeks prior to the overdose. (Also worth mentioning I definitely have some permanent memory loss issues from this attempt even now)
Tried to hang myself on my 19th birthday in january this year (since last summer it turned from impulsive to planned and I was dead set on it instead of it being erratic) but ended up sectioned back to the psych ward again.
I don't intend to fail again, its not even an option for me. I will be gone by 2019.
