I decided to share my story of Caffeine Overdose that happened last year, while my SN is still on the way.
Throwback to october, when i didn't even know about this forum. I was very suicidal, but didn't even do any research. I already heard about cases of caffeine od, and i thought it would be quick, peaceful and funny. I WAS SO GODDAMN WRONG.
One morning, i crushed 20-30x200mg pills with caffeine, mixed with tea, and even put some more teaspoons of pure caffeine dust in my drink "just in case". Taste was VERY bitter even with sugar. Within 10 minutes i started to feel dizzy, sweating increased. Caffeine also greatly increases anxiety so i was very scared. After another 10 minutes, I started having severe cramps, my limbs almost stopped working, and I could barely walk. Heartbeat rate was fucking insane. At this point i already regret what i done. My SI kicked in and i rushed to my first aid kit, taking activated charcoal and drinking plenty of apple juice (idk but this could have save me). I was one step away from dialing the emergency number, but I didn't for some reason. Next 4 hours i spent lying on bed, unable to move, vomiting with blood A LOT.
I was found and rushed to hospital. I said I was just poisoned, but didn't mention caffeine, and for some reason, doctors believed me. Reason i didn't tell them about caffeine is that this probably would completely fuck up my life. I spent next 2 weeks in hospital, taking a lot of medication.
I was diagnosed with GERD, my esophagus was full of sores, and I couldn't eat heavy meals for another month because I might vomit at any moment.
This days, my family and doctors still don't know about actual reason. These symptoms have now gone away, and I hope it won't interfere with SN i planning to take next week.
I know I was stupid, but I hope you found this story interesting or even useful.
Be careful and do your own research.
Sorry for grammar mistakes if any.
Goodluck y'all.
