I've survived two attempts, both by overdose. First with Vicodin and Bacardi Gold, the next one was 2 years later with crystal meth. I'm just putting myself out there for anyone who has been there and if anyone can relate.
I still struggle a bit with addiction, but I've quit crystal and I don't drink liquor or pop pills anymore. I've been hospitalized about 3 times for drug overdoses, one time the EMT technician told me that I had the blood pressure of an 85-year old woman because of all the drugs I had in my system at the time. Yet I survived all these situations where I really should have died.
I guess it was depression. I was filling that void where love should have been with alcohol and it just got worse from there. Car crashes, jail time, dead friends, I've been through a lot for a 24-year old. I'm just wondering if anyone else out there has a story about a time where they got so low that they actually tried to end their own life, but somehow lived to tell the story. Let me know.
