Cocaine: Cocaine Facts

Question: Did i overdose on cocaine?

I did coke for my first time this weekend and Ill go ahead and say I do not need lectures because I definitely learned my lesson. My friend and I had about a gram and we did our first bump Saturday morning and after that did one every so often. I had done more than her and all of a sudden last night around 2:30am I started feeling weird. My eyes were watering and my heart was beating so fast I was counting up to 100 bpm. All the research I started doing was pointing towards a cocaine overdose and saying that I could possibly die from a heart attack or stroke. I know I was stupid to not go to a hospital, but I stuck it out throughout the night and didnt go back to sleep. By the time I started getting ready for work at 7am, my heart was still beating pretty fast which made me very nervous. It actually didnt relax until about an hour and a half ago. Has this happened to anyone before or does anyone know what happened to me? Please if anyone has experienced this please let me know. I am kind of scared to fall asleep later and am wondering if I should still go to the doctor although I don't want my parents knowing I tried coke. My eyes burn a little bit (i dont know if its from not sleeping last night or not) and my nose still burns and is runny. I've been drinking water non stop today and ate some nuts this morning. Again, I do not need a lecture, trust me I will NEVER be doing anything to jeopardize my life like that again. I learned a huge lesson, any advice will help.

You didn't overdose, that's the nature of the drug. I also congratulate you for never doing it again.

Your not dead, you didn't "overdose " however, you did a drug known for causing heart failure. Please research further before using a controlled substance. There is an entire department in the government dedicated to the control of materials such as these for a reason.
