What does a benzo OD feel like?

[Trisolaris]

For those who have experienced it. What exactly happens? Do you fall asleep? Vomit?
Are there repercussions like organ damage?

Feels like I just got hammered, I remember feeling super woody/high and just wanting to sleep after an hour, woke up feeling like shit. Slept all day again. Nothing major or minor happened. Not even a blackout. Took about 200mg of bromazepam.

I woka up after many hours felt very sick= vomit.

So I took around 20mg of lorazepam - not to kill myself, just wanted to sleep off some paranoid thoughts but it was an impulsive overkill. I don't regularly take benzos, so I don't have any tolerance. Anyways, took them on Sunday afternoon, thinking I'd wake up the next day. Apparently I did wake up and was falling all over the place, couldn't speak or walk properly, etc and told my brother what I did (sounds very out of character), which is when he called an ambulance. I didn't feel unpleasant at all though and have no recollection of anything between going to sleep on Sunday and waking up still groggy on Wednesday afternoon in hospital, and did some more sleeping for the next few days. No nausea, seizures, headaches, anything, and no long lasting effects. I did spike a high fever though, which is weird

Sometimes I took around 6mg of lorazepam and makes me so calm.
More sleepy and calm.
I never try OD to CTB only to calm myself and ever works!

I had an OD last year but not from benzos but from sleeping pills but after taking the OD I passed out and only woke up in the hospital after a few days in a coma

How many pills can make a coma?

your Liver and kidneys can get damaged depending on how much you take. You feel heavily sedated and fall asleep, when you regain consciousness after like 30-40 hours you can barely lift you body off the bed (HEAVY SEDATION) most benzodiazepines aren't acidic so unless your stomach is full of food you probably won't vomit, I didn't. Then for the next month you will fall asleep every 2 hours because small amounts of the drug will still be in your system. I've read that benzodiazepines are the safest drugs to OD on and the most commonly used in suicide attempts.

not good. u may not sleep and could be walking around fully blackout.

this is a dangerous situation where u could do literally anything from crashing a car to robbing a bank. i would suggest not to do it

i used to just wake up after sleeping for 20 hours and not remembering what i did 2 days previous

I think it depends on the medication and the person

Sorry that this isn't on topic OP but I love your username - I've just finished my second read-through of the trilogy.

In my case, I have three days from my life which I have no memory of. I took the overdose, (12 pills bromazepam and 2 pills lorazepam, also weed) and slowly started to lose control over my body and mind. I came to in the hospital 3 days later. Apparently, I did some pretty horrible things. Also, I was told that I couldn't talk, stand or anything. I tripped all the time and regularly pissed myself.
I felt like a time traveler when I regained conscious attention. I have no recollection whatsoever from that time. Also, I fled from the hospital in my pajamas because I was still fucked up, LOL. People on the bus must have looked at me somewhat surprised.

Strangely enough, I took no physical damage, didn't even feel uncomfortable. No nausea, no headache, nothing.
But I soon noticed that benzodiazepines had no effect on me anymore. Must have fucked up some neural pathways or receptors in my brain.

I took around 40 pills and left my home and started walking outside, not knowing what I was doing. Eventually threw my phone and wallet somewhere and fell. Ambulance and police came and found me on the floor, slept in the hospital for one day, they told me that I'll be sent to the psychiatric hospital which I refused (still under the influence of meds, did a lot of weird shit that I don't recall) anyways I kept refusing and the next day I woke up in the psychiatric hospital. I don't remember anything that happened during the first 3 days. I wouldn't recommend anyone od'ing on benzos, it will literally possess you and you'll start doing shit that you don't even know about. Stay safe x (still in the psych ward btw, it's been a month)
When I recovered and was no longer in « black out mode » I saw two dots on the back of my hands (on my veins). It surely was the spot where they injected the antidote. My hands were green and fingernails were bluewish for like 5days

I don't know where I slept the first day all I know is that I was in the hospital as I don't recall anything that happened. And I don't know what antidote I was given either but probably flumezil

I have 2 months supply of Lorazepam 1mg. I'm thinking of taking 30mg at once. I know it's not a reliable method to CTB but i just want to temporarily shutdown my brain and be in a coma for few days. My brain is abusing and torturing me.

 

[Life interrupted]

I took 15 mg of alprazolam to numb myself as I was feeling super anxious. In the first couple of minutes I felt like I was somehow paralysed and could barely walk. I fell on my knee and to this day don't remember how or where it happened. I knew I fell only because of the huge bruise I had when I woke up. Afrer a few minutes I felt drowsy and slept for 6 hours. I didn't feel sick or had any after effects. I would do it everyday but you know how our bodies get used to every drug so it stops working.

You won't be in a coma from 30mg of lorazepam. You'll only end up sleeping a long period of time.
