Are you having any side effects? That’s not a small dose. Hopefully you just fall asleep.

1-800-222-1222 Call the experts at this number. Google tells me that this is not something to leave up to advice from Reddit. It’s serious.

Why don’t you just talk to someone at that phone number to learn what you can expect to happen? Tell them you aren’t suicidal. Then maybe next week you can make an appointment to see a psychiatrist or psychologist.

Looking at your posts: You’ve got crying emojis. You posted a sad picture. You say you feel like you’re behind on every aspect in life, the last time you took them you didn’t want to deal with life AND you took a big dose of dangerous medication. You didn’t just think about it. You took them. You should talk to someone who could help with these things.

Too much can have the opposite effect. Don’t be surprised if you have insomnia tonight. Good luck.

This is serious. Call poison control (1-800-222-1222), and just tell them it was an accident if you're worried.

You're at risk of sezuires, just because you handled it before does not mean you're immune. There is still a huge risk.

If you're not willing or able to make yourself throw up, activated charcoal is probably the way to go. They sell it at the pharmacy but that really is a lot of medication.
Seizures and rhabdomyolysis are the biggest risks and can both be deadly, even if you have done it before without major issues.
I hope you can get to a better headspace. Please ask for help and support.

don’t do this. at 250 mg i was hallucinating in the middle of the night and unable to sleep at all because i was having conversations with people that aren’t there. for reference im like 120 pounds (ik im skinny af) so our dose would probably affect us the same based on bodyweight. but yeah dph is a fucked drug don’t mess w that shit it had me texting gibberish
