Method Best medication to OD on?

[Anna.]

Hi. Decided that if a certain thing in my life doesn't go to plan, I will be CTB. Of course, this means I must find a plan, and I am wondering what the best medication to OD on is. Sleep medicine? Antidepressants? Does it even matter?

yes it definitely matter, most stuff you can't OD on, the stuff you can it's kind of obvious because they are heavily controlled substances.

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...

This explains why ODing isn't much of a plan.

Neither of those. See the "non-methods" resource thread, where both of these are explicitly warned against.

pentobarbital/nembutal but that's basically inaccessible

Well it's an interesting question. As others have said your chances are slim. Very.
But still, something must be "best". As for otc there are some reports about Benadryl working.

a Benadryl overdose will only make you have a bad trip and a chance of meeting the hat man

Fentanyl, if you can find it. But I've been reading about a way using Helium that looks promising.
If I didn't need to make it look accidental I would definitely be doing it with Helium.
You'll have to do your own research, because I don't want to be responsible for helping someone ctb. But if you are determining enough you shouldn't have any trouble finding out how it works.

Your chances are still slim, and even if it does work it will be a horrific death. Terrifying hallucinations are a key feature of benadryl overdoses. Ask anyone who has survived them. I've taken several small overdoses of benadryl and didn't take enough to hallucinate but was very anxious and paranoid.

codeine is your best bet

Codeine is most commonly taken by mouth. When you overdose on any substances that you eat or drink, your body forces you to puke, so that you're less likely to get seriously ill or die. While it's technically possible to overdose on codeine, it's one of the weakest opioids. I think there is plenty of information on opioids both on this forum and on other websites though, so no need for me to elaborate on what is more likely to cause a fatal overdose.

Codeine is really inconsistent between different people.

Most of its effects are from being metabolized into morphine. And this varies a lot between different people.

And the amount you'd need to ingest would almost certainly cause puking.
