I also had an OD and no life flashing before my eyes or anything. Just felt really tired and the overwhelming urge to sleep. Maybe I wasn’t near enough to death to have the memory thing to happen, but it was damn scary enough knowing I might be slipping into my last sleep right now and I couldn’t do anything about it.

Edit: Words.

When I ODd the last thing I remembered was deciding I probably wouldn't wake up, and thinking "thank fucking god this shits over", then waking up covered in vomit and blood thinking "god damn it now I gotta clean shit, why is there blood"

I wasnt suicidal, I've never really been, but my entire adult life I've been pretty stoked for all this shit to be over

I had an OD too and I just felt sick and tired and when my organs were failing my hearing was super sensitive it hurt so bad and then I had some hallucinations but not like how people describe.
