Too Much Dihydrocodiene

So the start out I am a M 23 and I have been listening to TTFT since the first video and I always wanted you to read my story. This is my first submission. To start since I was about 21. I always experimented with drugs. Such as benzos, amphetamine, Ketamine, shrooms, acid, DMT, molly plus a lot more. But this one trip made me rethink my drug use severely.

So it started with me hitting up one of my friends, seeing if I can get some weed or any type of drug since at the time I was an absolute fiend. However he was out of everything but he did happen to have some dihydrocodeine that he stole from his grandma and said he would give me half a a bottle.

Of course I agree and grab the bottle. After work and go home excited to have a chill night. Mind you I have no experience in dosage and work at 9 the next day. So I get home and start slowly sipping on this pretending like I’m future (now I think back so cringe and irresponsible).

So after an hour or so, I end up very high thinking I will just fall asleep and end up waking up going to work tomorrow and that will be it. Little did I know was I in for a hell of a night. Since it’s Dihydrocodeine, it contains a lot more promethazine which acted as a deliriant which I wish I knew sooner…

Within one to two hours, I noticed one of my best friends in my room (I live alone) and started having a casual conversation with him and then I look away for two seconds and he disappeared. The same thing with people that I’ve haven’t met in years. Over and over I would have a full on hilarious conversation and then look away and they will be gone. It was not scary, but it was definitely interesting. Most of the less scary start I would say was definitely the dihydrocodiene. As it worse off tho the Promethazine took told. Next thing I black out.

My next moment of consciousness I am at my aunts (who lives 10 minutes away all highway) banging on her door at 3am seeing if anyone answers. Keep in mind I have no clue how I got my key and my wallet for my parking garage or didn’t total my car. After 20 minutes of banging they never answer (they are 80+ and probably couldnt hear me) I look to my side and see a man in the shadows stripping the wires off of my aunts neighbors house. At this point there is no chance I cant tell reality from hallucinations. Somehow I frantically start texting my aunt that someone is cutting her neighbors wires.

Somehow I get a moment of realization and think wtf am I doing… my car was parked in the middle of the street with the door open and this whole time am in shorts and a tee shirt shivering my ass off… So I get back in the car the being still not in the right state of mind and decided to drive all the way back to my house. Which is stupidity at its finest. I think I was in and out of trying to stay awake while driving and it was terrifying. Somehow I made it how i made it home safe but got a ticket because my car was parked in 3 spots lmao. The next thing I know is my boss calling me at 3:45 pm asking if I knew I opened and I flipped out told him it was a mental episode.

Lesson is dont take too much of anything. Moderation is key. Even if you think you’re safe. Your life can change in a blink of any I just got lucky.
