Y'allZ,

I just popped the wrong pill! 8O

I accidentally took one of my grandparents' pills somehow (don't ask me how), and now the pill is taking effect. It's turning me NT! I don't know how it's doing it, but apparently it is. I can no longer resist the urge :lol: 8) 8O to make excessive use of emoticons! 8O :P :roll: I've also said, "Dude! Whassup?" five times in the last hour!

The Cards are playing the Houston Astros in the National League championship series, and I'm actually watching it! Not only that, I'm enjoying it and have full knowledge of the various baseball players and their bios. I also feel my intelligence receding like a middle-aged man's hair line.

Do you know what kind of pills they are? What do your grandparents take them for? I hope they don't do you any real harm.

I've never had anyone else's medication, but I did have an incident sort of like that with my own. I took two Adderalls one morning. I took one, continued getting ready for school, and took another one about ten minutes later because I forgot I took the first one. The entire day I felt shakey, and I was wired and extremely alert.

Neant, I think the downside is you might all of a sudden get the urge to start eating meatloaf, drinking alkaseltzer, start buying mothballs to put in random drawers, maybe even wanting to move to Florida. :? :roll: If that happens I'd highly advise getting your stomache pumped.

I had a friend who was at work with a bad headache, he saw his boss had some pills, and he decided to pop em thinking they were aspirines. Just like your story, they were adderals - the big ones at that. Lol, he said he was up for a couple days off that stuff.

Provided you're OK, the post did actually make me laugh out loud.

Hey neant, any idea what the name of it is though? If it's an anti-alzheimers medication it might explain what your feeling (usually when I was taking anything like a vasodialator, stimulant, or anything cognitive enhancing I'd feel something like that in the innitiating effects).

Wow, this brings back a memory. I think you'll enjoy the story.

I once had a root canal done, and the dentist prescribed me Vicodin. The prescription said "take two pills," with each one being 1 g. Well, I took them until I ran out. I was still getting toothaches, so I went to pick up another package, but the pharmacy only had packages of 2 g pills. I said "fine."

One night, before going out with friends, I took my usual amount, so a toothache wouldn't sneak up on me. Now, I took two pills, just as I've done before, since it was a mechanical habit by then. Except this time, they were 2 g each, not 1 g; so the total dose amounted to 4 g!

As we drove to an entertainment center (it had pool, bowling, etc.), I felt an ethereal trance come over me. It was really weird, but felt amazingly good. Plus, the weather was in the 70's, which felt very comfortable. As we stood in front of the entrance, my friends went aside somewhere, while I stood where I was, smoking a cigarette.

Suddenly, I saw a girl my age standing nearby, smoking as well. I turned to her, and said: "Wow, the weather feels so nice today. Sure is rare this time of year." (It was July.) She said: "Yeah. Nice to get out of the house on a day like this." We talked for about five more minutes, with her smiling quite a bit, until her friends pulled up in a car. She said something in the line of "Thanks for keeping me company," briefly touched me on the arm, and got in the car.

At that point, my friends (who apparently were trying to decide on pool vs. bowling), turned to me, and said: "Wow, what you did there was amazing. We've never seen you like this. How did you pull that off?" Still in my Vicondin-induced trance, I said: "Well, she was so friendly", which I'm guessing didn't answer their question. For the rest of the night, I had difficulty concentrating.

Or playing meatloaf in an attempt to serenide women... :?

BTW, he's a fantasy sport addict.

So your grandparents left their pills in your college dorm room huh? :lol:

Referring to us as Y'allz was a nice touch though

Lol, someone should protect his aquarium too if he has one. My sister works in a nursing home and they have one there. The staff have to do a head count of the fish every shift to make sure they're all there, because the residents catch the fish somehow and eat them. (Is the food there that bad??)
