I was introduced to coricidin by a total stranger in eighth grade. I favored acid and shrooms at the time but acid had died by that time and shrooms were no where to be found. This stranger told me that coricidin was just like acid. At the time I was pretty naive so I tryed it believing the total stranger who told me about it. Well it wasn’t acid but I was instantly hooked. It was all the spiritual enlightenment of an lsd trip but it also had the warm numming glow of an opium high and the stamina, strenghth, and energy of meth times ten.
After that one time I was more than just addicted, I was in love with my perfect drug, when I was on it I was god I felt nothing, emotional nor physical. I could do anything. I could not turn away from it. So I plunged myself into what I believe to be one of the longest coricidin binges any ones survived. I stole four boxes a day to feed my habit, which works out to about 1000 mgs a day, and I did for three months straight. I barely slept or eat and I was high literaly 24 hours a day.
After a week of this I started having conversations with people that were not really there. Then I started to have visuals so realistic I didn’t know they were not real. I was slowly slipping into a very severe pshycosis. I went on like this until I finaly took too much. I took 64 pills, that’s 960mgs in one dose. I had my stomach pumped and I barely came out alive. On the way home from the hospital I got my mom to stop for fast food and when she stoped I jumped out the car and ran to the nearest drug store to get more coricidin.
I ended up quitting about a month later after I took 48 pills at once and overdosed again, and got shuffled around from one pshyciatric hospital to another.
