Side effects of codeine overdose?

[sachaa]

I really want to overdose on 50 codeine pills stolen from my father. I have in total 1500mg of codeine, and it's combined with paracetamol so that's 25000mg paracetamol too. However, I know this on it's own likely wouldn't kill me, so I mostly want to know how badly it would affect me. I've tried to overdose on just paracetamol before, I can't remember how much I took but I threw up for like a week afterwards, but no known liver damage. Secondly, is there anything I could combine this with to make it actually work?? Not necessarily more pills, maybe slitting my wrists or something. I know it's stupid but I really want to use these pills somehow, it's symbolic or something like that.

Usually it's the acetaminophen that causes the issue with those combo drugs. I've never heard of a codeine OD success.

You'll get wasted as fuck and have the highest few moments of your life, then you pass out and wake up in a hospital. At least that's how it worked for me.

Oh, interesting. I always assumed that because it was a stronger painkiller, it would cause more issues if you take a lot of it. I googled it and saw a couple pages saying it can result in death, but maybe that's just a "worst case scenario" kind of thing. Thanks.

Basically every drug warns that it can result in death, but most of the time it doesn't. Only 1% of all ODs are successful. As you've experienced, people tend to throw up after they ingest poisons, which keeps them alive. That's why the poison regimens here all include metoclopramide.

Haha. I've been codeine-high a few times, I've never liked the feeling. If you don't mind me asking, how was the hospital like? One of my biggest fears is going to the hospital after attempting, especially when all the staff would know I tried to ctb. I'm also curious as to how long you felt the high for. You don't need to answer either of those, if you don't want to.

Why ODs Fail Miserably (A Guide)

There's still a lot of questions and inquiries about ODs, and people asking about what things may facilitate a successful attempt. Let's be clear, ODs are rarely fatal. Why? For a couple of reasons: (1) modern medications are designed to be very safe, as manufacturers aim to avoid deaths that...

Well the hospital was... awkward. They had to call my family. I have issues because of my family abuse and molesting so it was pretty awkward for me. I just tried to act normal, I told them I was having fun with friends and shit, so they wouldn't put me in the psyche ward (trust me, you do not wanna be there). I've been admitted to the the psyche ward a few times involuntarily. All they do is literally put you in a room where you're on suicide and self harm watch. The nurses are weird and shit and you don't even get proper clothes. However, if you do end in the hospital and the staff know you attempted, they literally will not give a fuck. Like the good thing is no one will care. Bad thing is they'll stick you in the psyche ward, where still nobody cares. Their job is to keep you alive. That's all. You do not want the staff to think you did it on purpose, because I would rather be in jail than in the psyche ward. I was high for like maybe two hours but I kept taking liquid codeine during that time so I passed out somewhere around 3 hours. My family found me probably after 2 more hours.

I tried to cbt ages ago exactly like this and ended up in hospital. It damaged my liver, and dont get me started on the cramps before I passed in and out. I enjoy pain, but i really wouldn't recommend trying to cbt that way, won't work and isn't fun.

I'm really sorry to hear you're in such a difficult place right now. Hoping the liquid codeine you took was free from contaminants
