It was a few weeks ago when I had a moment of clarity that I almost overdosed. I had been struggling with depression and anxiety for a while and had been taking medication to help manage my symptoms. I had been taking the medication for a few months and had been feeling better, but I was still struggling with my mental health.
One night, I was feeling particularly low and I decided to take a few extra pills. I thought that if I took a few extra pills, it would help me feel better. I was wrong.
I started to feel really strange and my heart was racing. I felt like I was going to pass out and I started to panic. I knew that I had taken too many pills and I was scared that I was going to overdose.
I called my friend and she came over right away. She took me to the hospital and the doctors were able to help me. They gave me medication to help me calm down and monitored me for a few hours.
I am so thankful that I was able to get help in time and that I didn’t overdose. It was a scary experience and it made me realize how important it is to take care of my mental health. I now make sure to talk to someone if I’m feeling overwhelmed and I make sure to take my medication as prescribed.
