Should I overdose on antidepressants mixed with aspirin or paracetamol?

[Deleted member 23885]

This is the most surefire way to commit suicide. I'm in unbearable agony and suffer from severe anxiety, depression and OCD along with probable BPD. I don't know the fatality rate, but it isn't high compared with hanging or shooting yourself. But, if I mix prozac with other medicines, the fatality rate is higher. Still, I'll give it my best shot. Everything feels so difficult. Any advice on how to achieve a lethal overdose? I know a few celebrities died of an overdose on anti-depressants?

It will likely not work. Depends on what the antidepressant is.

I'm on Prozac, what if I mix it with aspirin or paracetamol?

Overdosing is one of the least surefires methods. I don't know how strong these medicines you have are, so I can't opine much, but be cautious, the chances of you just ending in the hospital and causing everlasting damage to your organs is high.

Think people need be very careful about use of paracetamol. It's not a peaceful way to die - can take days whilst you are conscious and go in to liver failure. Yes it is toxic but not in a way that puts you to sleep. Not a calming end because of this. And likely heroic measures would be taken to try save you which for me, isn't what I would want or need.

Please dont go through that option, it's extremely painful, and with a high chance of failure, sorry you are suffering so much.

This.
I tried OD and only ended up in a comma for 2 days + 1 month in hospital + no freedom for 5 months.

Sorry, it won't work.

Prozac is a safe antidepressant. It's unlikely you will over dose and pass away. Have you spoke to your doctor? Prozac isn't a good antidepressant there's much better ones these days. Maybe let your doctor know they aren't doing the job intended and give another one a try? It would be a shame to lose you for the sake of a crap drug.

I wouldn't. I tried and gave myself heart damage, agonising pain for weeks and liver damage. It's effects have lasted almost a year and it felt like I was having a heart attack. Please consider your options, and if you can, seek support instead of going that route. I know it's not easy, but from experience, this method will make your life hell. I hope you choose differently. I wish you luck that you choose whatever is best for you.
Take care~
