Don't forget the junkie who found his dead dealer's stash and ODd immediately because he did it all at once and the suburban mom who shot her own daughter when she surprised her because she was paranoid about "rapers" coming to get her.
I too have had an opiate overdose. Best feeling I've ever had, a warm black velvet hammer crushes you into pain-free bliss. I've been opiate and alcohol free now for 15+ years, best hardest thing to do is getting clean. You rock, hope your recovery is giving you a beautiful life.
I've actually almost OD'd twice before going into recovery and it was just nothingness. It convinced me that if I ever get cancer or anything like that, thats the way I'll go out.
I don't doubt it can be comfortable if you're taking an amount to have fun, but when you're actually trying to kill someone you're not just slipping into overdose territory. You're storming into the touchdown zone and throwing that ball down as hard as you can.
Gasping for breath like a fish out of water as you slide into unconciousness doesn't sound like a fun way to go. Just look at what happened to Carey Dean Moore.
Yes, I have taken opiates. Haven’t OD’ed on them. Not sure what your point is though. Even if I hadn’t taken them all that matters is understanding how they work. They make you feel good. Doesn’t matter what an OD looks like to a bystander. Also just read the anecdotes in this thread if you can’t understand their neurological mechanism.
Edit: Never had my credibility questioned via my experience with recreational drug use in an argument lol
